The best 11-string guitar player in the world!
08/26/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This recording was made with Blanchette's self-designed "archguitar," which is a combination of a lute and a guitar. It sounds like nothing I've ever heard, and his way of playing is at the same time very modern and yet feels ancient. I play it all the time."
A wonderful atmosphere of noise

"I just recently got into classical music. I got into it because I purchased a classical guitar and was looking for music to play. When I first heard Bach I knew that is what I wanted to play. I came across this c.d. while looking for bach on classical guitar. When I listened to it, I was amazed. It creates such a great atmosphere of sound almost as if there was three or four guitars playing. The horn sections just add to overwhelming mood. This c.d. is great to listen to on a rainy day, when you are studying, or when you wake up and cook breakfast. It sets a great background for just about anything."
Incredible and Classical

"Peter Blanchette's choice of music and the recording are simply awesome. This album is so good, in fact, that I am writing this good review despite the fact that I ordered a guitar transcription of one of the songs and never heard back from him(didn't get it, nor did Mr. Blanchette cash the check). This music is THAT good. Trust me, buy this CD because it is one of the greatest musical works I have come across, but don't bother ordering a transcription when you realize how great the music really is :)."
