This is "Home"... a guitar composition played and recorded in my "Spontaneous Composition Form". I chose this picture I took in the late 80's of "Vroman's Nose"... when coming home one early evening from playing at the Hunter Mt. Country Music Festival and just captured by the view. The recording is an original piece created with three individually recorded live guitar tracks, no computer generated stuff here. First... I played the rhythm guitar track, just chords that were carefully chosen to express the feeling I wanted to portray in the music. Then, while playing back this track in the studio I recorded two separate solo guitar tracks that weave together as a free flowing series of melodic lines to hopefully create a soundscape reflecting the significance of the theme... as it means and feels to myself when I think of the beautiful Schoharie Valley Area, and how I remember being caught in the moment of what had been a very nice day... just filled with music... and how essentially so also has been my life, filled with music.
