SYMPHONIC LANDSCAPESPrudence 398.6784.2 (SONY/COL 481487-2)
With the Orchestra of "VEREINIGTE BÜHNEN WIEN"
Conductor CASPAR RICHTER
In 1990 multi-instrumentalist Gandalf, musically rather being a loner,
literally jumps over his shadow, taking the challenge of composing and
arranging an entire work for large orchestra as part of the "Vienna
Music Summer"-Festival.
By compounding his guitar and keyboard works with the symphonic
orchestral sound and merging various stylistic influences, Gandalf
breaks the boundaries between classical and popular music. The studio
recordings, as well as the world premiere at the Vienna Konzerthaus
were realized in collaboration with the Orchestra of the United Stages
Vienna, conducted by Caspar Richter.
Tracks:
