Pierre Bensusan "Intuite"

Pierre Bensusan's 2000 album "Intuite" is his first solo, acoustic, instrumental work and he hooked up with legendary guitarist Steve Vai's label Favored Nations for worldwide distribution. Working exclusively in the unusual DADGAD tuning, Pierre has developed a bittersweet melodic approach that incorporates Folk, Celtic, Jazz, Impressionist, Brazilian, Mediaeval, Latin, North African rhythms, wordless vocals and French songs. Bensusan has established himself as a compelling concert performer and a stellar contributor to worldwide music festivals. The folks at Encore write glowingly about Bensusan's CD, "He's like the Jimi Hendrix of the acoustic set. Resonating with humble, quiet brilliance, Bensusan's intricate fingerwork and cross-genre inspiration presaged what is now widely known as 'world music'. It's the perfect sound to accompany sunlight as it streams through your window."
