While one guitar plays the meat of the selection, the second guitar plays almost a descant weaving in and out of new lines and lines from the original score. This is a selection from my Christmas CD that evolved into a duet from improvising for leisure over the existing track. Johann was a tremendous improviser so I do not think he would mind my improvisation. After playing it for Wayne, he convinced me to construct a more structured duet. I agreed, invited Wayne and Tom to help me and the result is this duet that combine's Bach's lines, my improvisations, and new lines co-composed by Wayne, Tom, and myself. That co-operative effort highlights the special relationship that we 3 have and the resulting output that is, in my opinion, extraordinary! http://www.skanson.com/product_info.php/products_id/161 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:19:51 -0700 http://www.skanson.com/product_info.php/cPath/24_30/products_id/95 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:19:51 -0700 Canon in D (Pachelbel) Classical guitar with synthesizer horns and strings.

Also known as Pachelbel’s Canon, or simply The Canon, Pachelbel certainly would be pleased to know that his song is so enduring. http://www.skanson.com/product_info.php/cPath/24_30/products_id/111 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:19:51 -0700 haunting jazz chords with the beautiful nylon string guitar tone for a composition that completely evokes the title. Composed in 2004, it displays the delicate touch and phrasing that has become a trade mark of Skanson's work. Most of the time when I write music, I do not start with the title. Once I finish the piece, I reflect on what the song is saying to me. This melancholy melody said "Without You". ]]> http://www.skanson.com/product_info.php/cPath/24_33/products_id/188 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:19:51 -0700 http://www.skanson.com/product_info.php/cPath/24_31/products_id/50 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:19:50 -0700 http://www.skanson.com/product_info.php/products_id/71 Fri, 12 Jan 2007 05:19:50 -0700
