Crimson on CD

Known for his rich guitar tone and contemplative original compositions, German fingerstyle veteran Ulli Bogershausen's playing continues to mature. Consisting of eight pieces for solo steel-string guitar and four duets with nylon-string guitarist Reinhold Westerheide, Chocolate and Wine blends equal elements of folk, classical, pop, and newage. Carefully constructed tunes like "Rain in July" recall the- British Isles folk-baroque tradition exemplified by John Renbourn, while the duos are more contemporarysounding. The intimate quality of the production virtually transports Bögershausen's Lakewood guitars into your living room. Chocolate and Wine is pure fingerstyle guitar, and the compositions offer new surprises with every spin.
