about

Northern Lights consists of an eclectic mix of originals and arrangements. The album features classical guitars, electric guitars with Max/MSP, a solo piano piece, as well as an electronic piece that will freak your neighbors out (Red Desert).

Prayer, Sun Kiss, Sunshine, Improv #5, and Northern Lights feature the guitar paired with the computer program, Max/MSP. Through the use of this program, the solo guitar is made to sound like many guitars. None of the sounds on these tracks were pre-recorded. All sounds were processed in real time.

The classical guitar originals (Renaissance Dance, Greenwood, Two Childhood Sketches, and Evensong) were composed over a 16-year period, with Renaissance Dance being the earliest and Evensong being the most recent piece.

The two arrangements, Scarborough Fair and House of the Rising Sun, fill out the rest of the CD. Scarborough Fair remains gentle in this arrangement, while House of the Rising Sun becomes increasingly more and more frantic before reaching the climax in the final verse.
