Product details
A five movement suite for solo guitar based on various indigenous Dreamtime legends.
These pieces, as their title suggests are not programmatic, but impressions or feelings about various legends and myths from the "Dreamtime" of the Australian Aborigines. The musical language is my own and it was not my intention to mimic in any way, any aspect of their rich culture; rather I have simply used these stories as a starting point for my own fantasies.
