Composed by Sergio Altamura, "Blu" is a 12 track album, which exceeds preconceived contemporary limits of instrumental music for acoustic guitar; with percussion, loops, mechanical fans, intoxicating vocals and other guitars.
In the recordings on Blu, Sergio Altamura performs on a 12-string guitar, a tenor and a baritone, along with the electronic loops, voice and percussions. Ackerman plays, an acoustic guitar in the track "Before The Sea" and a parlour guitar in "The Name Of The Rose;" which Ackerman also co-wrote. Noah Wilding lends his voice, and Ackerman his guitar in "Before The Sea.
Solo Acoustic Guitar
Sergio Altamura latest release plays more like a movie soundtrack than a instrumental guitar CD. Aria Meccanica plays out scene by scene, creating countless images and setting dark and beautiful moods throughout. Through Altamura's innovative use of looping and effects he takes the compositions to impossible heights and adds so many layers of texture, it builds to full orchestra.
Acoustic Guitar Trio
Guitar Republic is the new solo-duo-trio concert by Sergio Altamura, Stefano Barone and Pino Forastiere: music in the widest sound spectrum you may imagine, from the pure acoustic guitar sound to experimental electronics. Rock, improvisation, minimalism, mediterranean colors and rhythms are performed on the same stage by three different citizens of the same Guitar Republic.
