Free Music Notes for David Garrett
Free Music Review: Amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
I love this CD. I would give it 10 stars, if possible!
All music I like moves me in some way, but it has been years since any came along that did so in a way that I could just fall into it. Generally instrumentals don't do it. Mostly because its the combinations of the vocals, and music-the over all feel of a song that moves me. I don't listen to lyrics-most of the time the vocals, and music put off a different feel than the lyrics. Example: Pearl Jam, where the lyrics are emotionally dark, but Eddy Veder has the sexiest voice, and the instrumentals great ("Black" is a good example). I like the quote: "Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent" which makes my mp3 player the equivelant of a diary, except noone else can understand it;)
I expected this to be more of a relaxing cd, something I could listen to while writing without getting distracted. What a pleasant surprise!The whole cd is wonderful (although "Smooth Criminal" didn't do much for me). For myself the best songs were: "Aint no sunshine"-its slow, and jazzy, and when he plays the beautiful high note, that just lingers, I'm a goner (anyone know who the horn player is)? "Gypsy Dance" starts out slow, and I almost dismissed this song, but when it took off, I actually laughed! Not because the song is funny, but because its so happy! Garrett is one of the fastest violinists, playing 13 notes per second, and this ability is really experienced here. "Chelsea Girl" was written by Garrett for his on/off again girlfriend, and it has a certain sweet sadness to it. I swear at the end, the violin says "I love you." *sniff.* "Nothing Else Matters" - Even if you don't like Metallica, or ever heard them, this is a gorgeous song! Garrett puts the same passion into Metallica as he does Bach and it shows. Lastly, "Who Wants To Live Forever" which is simply amazing!
I also ordered "Rock Symphonies." If you've ever wondered what a 290 year old stratovarous, and electric guitar would sound like together, you'll enjoy it as well. I know many people aren't fond of crossovers, but he does draw the younger kids in-first with his edgy sound, and look, then the classics. Who knows maybe one day we'll see kids running around playing air violin, instead of air guitar, ok and maybe one 45 yr old kid-but only once, to "The 5th" ha! Recommend highly.
Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. ~Ludwig van Beethoven
David Garrett Poster
Garrett's unique, and wholly individual style, pays as much homage to Metallica as to Mozart. His forthcoming record covers an incredibly diverse selection of repertoire, representing his love for many genres, and the ability to tackle each successfully. Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal," is cleverly reinterpreted, as is Queen's ballad, "Who Wants to Live Forever." AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" is given a memorable new twist, alongside, "He's a Pirate," from "Pirates of the Caribbean." Given his enduring commitment to his first musical love, David still includes some classical selections on his American debut, including the last movement of Vivaldi's "Summer" from The Four Seasons, and Bach's "Air". Not to be satisfied with only imaginative covers, David also displays his own deft writing skills with notable originals, including "Chelsea Girl."Classic Rock Music CDs
