Arise

Arise is a collection of compelling, guitar-oriented, instrumental compositions with emotive melodies and imaginative textures. Drawing upon elements of rock, jazz and world music, each song rings with purity and energy, and creates its own unique mood. By design, the music on Arise is varied in both approach and emotional content, providing a wide spectrum of sonic enjoyment. From the happy carefree feel of "Unbridled" to the sultry Spanish flavor of "Jorge And Juan Carlos" to the lamenting tone of "Leaving", strong undercurrents of emotion are always present, forming a common thread through the entire program. A superior musical collection.
