Description

Title: Strad to Strat
Artist: Ferguson, Kevin
Label: CD Baby
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 677520001024
Genre: Classical Artists

Since it's release in late 1995, this album has influenced countless electric guitar players around the globe (US, Canada, Mexico through South America, Europe, Japan, etc.) as evidenced by similar attempts since recorded (guitar9.com & youtube, for example). This may be one of the most influencial musicians you've never heard of. For years many of his live performances resulted in audiences asking 'why isn't this guy famous?' After many years playing many genres from New York to California, Ferguson taught and played guitar in bands, including his own, in the Portland Oregon area. There one can still occasionally hear him playing an inimitable mix of guitar hero tunes, world music, fiery classical and originals that thrill audiences and result in rave reviews. His STRAD TO STRAT CD includes fiery classical violin works such as Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 1, Bach's Violin Concerto No. 1, other caprices and showpieces from other virtuosi. Unlike neoclassical guitar players who quote short portions of classical virtuosi, Ferguson rises to the challenge of performing each work note for note in entirety. Each is arranged for electric guitar and full orchestra.
