Guitar Images: 25 Acoustic Guitar Solos

Companion dual CD for "Guitar Images" . The solos in this collection present a myriad of moods on the guitar. They were written to be very expressive, contemplative pieces which could be performed in a variety of secular and sacred settings. Most of the pieces are from three solo collections previously released, entitled "Guitar Meditations" , "Guitar Airs and Ballads") and "Timeless Solos for Guitar".

Some of the pieces were scored for 7-string guitar; others, 6-string guitar. Many of the solos use a "cross-picking" technique alternating higher position closed strings and open strings, resulting in a "harp-like" effect. A number of the pieces are in Dropped D tuning, highlighting the rich resonance that tuning gives the instrument. Explore the diverse moods presented in this collection! Performed by William Bay.
