Info for Under A Mediterranean Sky

'Under A Mediterranean Sky' ist das erste akustische Soloalbum des legendären Gitarristen Steve Hackett seit 'Tribute' einer Aufnahme von 2008, in der man ihn einige der schönsten klassischen Stücke seiner Gitarrenidole meistern hörte. Das neue Album hingegen wurde von Steves ausgedehnten Reisen am Mittelmeer inspiriert. 'Eine Menge akustischer Ideen haben sich über die letzten Jahre geformt, und es fühlte sich wie der perfekte Zeitpunkt an, dieses neue Album zu erschaffen,' merkt Hackett an, 'eine Zeit, die Orte, die wir am Mittelmeer besucht haben, zu reflektieren mit einer Art der Musik, die sich aus der Welt der Vorstellungskraft entwickelt. 'Under A Mediterranean Sky' lässt nichts von der Grandiosität der letzten elektronischen Soloaufnahmen von Steve Hackett vermissen, gibt aber gleichzeitig auch Raum für seine erstaunliche Bandbreite musikalischer Annäherungen was uns wiedermal daran erinnert, warum Steve so ein verehrter und respektierter Musiker ist.

"Steve Hackett in bestechender puristischer Form an mehreren Saiteninstrumenten und als Arrangeur, der seine vielköpfige Helfer-Formation mit mal fülligen, mal sparsam beschriebenen Partitur-Blättern an der Schnittstelle von Orient und Okzident entlangführt." (Andreas Schiffmann, musikreviews.de)

Steve Hackett
is renowned as an immensely talented and innovative rock musician. He was lead guitarist with Genesis as part of their classic line up with Gabriel, Collins, Banks and Rutherford, who produced several of the band’s most acclaimed albums including Selling England by the Pound (a favourite of John Lennon) and The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. With Steve's extraordinary versatility in both his electric guitar playing and his composing, he involves influences from many genres, including Jazz, World Music and Blues. He is equally adept in his classical albums that include renditions of pieces by composers from Bach to Satie, his own acoustic guitar compositions that have gained the admiration of many, including Yehudi Menuhin, and ambitious guitar/orchestra albums such as A Midsummer Night's Dream, recorded with the Royal Philharmonic.
