专辑简介

French composer and guitarist Guillaume Gargaud releases "17 Compositions," a compilation of his acoustic guitar improvisations that are framed by pitch and intervallic restrictions. Gargaud has systematically liberated himself from the constraints of his background in a straight ahead jazz vocabulary, while integrating influences from Messiaen to Webern to Cecil Taylor. His intuitive approach to seeking out different sources of inspiration has allowed him to cultivate a uniquely expressive voice.
