Larry Coryell - guitars

One of the more unusual recordings of Larry Coryells long career is his solo
interpretation of Igor Stravinskys major ballet Le Sacre du Printemps (The Rite
of Spring). In attempting this classical composition on a six-string acoustic
guitar, without overdubs, Coryell has his work cut out for him, as Stravinskys
original ballet rehearsal version was conducted on not one but two pianos! This
works best in the softer sections of the work like the introductions to each of
the two segments of the work, though Coryells virtuoso technique will likely
impress notoriously hard to please classical fans. He doesnt strictly attempt a
literal transcription, but introduces his own Latin-flavored interludes,
additional vamps and improvised sections. It seems almost criminal that there
are no liner notes to explain what prompted the making of this CD, though it
seems almost obvious that the guitarist had likely been fascinated with this
composition since childhood. Coryell also recorded Stravinskys Oiseau De Feu
(Firebird)/Petrouchka in 1984.
