Info for Blue Moon
The release of a new production by Peter Finger is an event in the acoustic guitar scene. After all, Finger – guitarist, composer, producer, label head and publisher – is the integration figure of the German acoustic scene. “Only few can replace an entire orchestra with an acoustic guitar alone as Peter Finger does”, was the verdict of the highly critical trade magazine AUDIO. “Blue Moon“ proves this once again. Peter Finger integrates the most diverse musical ideas, harmonic concepts and flowing melodies to create cosmopolitan guitar music of the highest sensuous quality and has continued refining his musical language. “Blue Moon” is an adventurous musical journey between classical lines, abstract minimalism, folkloristically colored arpeggios and ultra-fast power riffs. And it will cause a stir.
Peter Finger
was born in Weimar, Germany, in 1954 (his father was a conductor). Before beginning guitar lessons at the age of 13, Finger studied both violin and piano.
Since the mid-'70s, Finger has been issuing albums (1975's Detlef & Finger and Bottleneck Guitar Solos, plus 1977's Acoustic Rock Guitar), and toured the world on a regular basis, including shows in his native Germany, as well as the U.S.A., Canada, Japan, England, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, France, Italy, Finland, Poland, Estonia, and Russia. The guitarist then branched out into other areas, including producing music for both TV, radio, and film, plus composing for orchestras. In 1988, Finger founded his own publishing company and record label (Acoustic Music Records), and in 1995, he became the publisher of ~Akustik Gitarre magazine. The '90s also saw further solo releases from Finger, including such titles as 1990's The Colors of the Night, 1995's Innenleben and Solo, 1999's Open Strings, and a ten-track 2001 compilation, The Collection.
