Product details

Guitar Trek started out in 1987 and broke new ground for the guitar, with their special "family" of standard guitars by Greg Smallman, treble guitars by Eugene Philp and Greg Smallman, and baritone and bass guitars by Graham Caldersmith. Having the range of instruments gives wonderful sonic possibilities. Since the beginning Guitar Trek has not only commissioned Australian luthiers to make thse instruments but also commissioned and performed new works by Australian composers.
This CD presents works by four composers who have featured in many of their concert programmes.
Most works are receiving their world premiere recording on this CD.
The production of this CD has been sponsored by the family of Edda Filson.

Duration: 68 min.

Liner notes include programme notes and biographical notes on the ensemble and the composers.
