Renowned as both the founder of Windham Hill Records and one of that label's finest artists, guitarist Will Ackerman is well represented on this 16-track mostly instrumental collection. Drawing primarily on his 1980s material, PURE also features several compositions from other stages of Ackerman's career, including "The Impending Death of the Virgin Spirit," a delicate piece from '77, and a beautiful 2004 recording of "Murray's Song." While many of the tracks feature Ackerman solo, he is accompanied by top-notch musicians on a handful of tunes, most notably a gorgeously spare live performance of "Hawk Circle" from '83 with fellow six-string luminary Michael Hedges and pianist George Winston. As an introduction to Ackerman's gentle, relaxing sound, this compilation is ideal.
Additional Tracks

Anybody who has spent any length of time with Billy Joel's music knows that it is ideally suited for the Broadway stage, so it was no big surprise when a selection of his songs formed the basis of a production in 2002. What was a surprise is that it was conceived, directed, and choreographed by Twyla Tharp, ...

It may sound overblown, or even downright silly, to say this about what is really a sampler album, but the two-CD British Film Classics is a wonder, in scope and quality, one of the finest soundtrack anthologies devoted to its subject. That's not too surprising, however, as it comes from Chandos Records, a label that has gone out of its way in recent years to record an extraordinary amount of classic material in the vintage soundtrack field. Opening up with Ron Goodwin's glorious, sweeping main title theme from Sidney Hayers' The Trap (1966), the disc takes us backward 30 years to the dawn of classically structured British soundtracks with Sir Arthur Bliss' march from William Cameron Menzies' Things to Come (1936), then ahead to the 1940s and Alan Rawsthorne's charming, elegant "Valse Caprice" from Uncle Silas (1947). Sir William Walton's "Prelude" from Hamlet is represented with far bolder, more emphatic playing than one is accustomed to hearing -- one of the virtues of the Chandos recordings of these scores is that the conductors ...
