The double neck 14 string acoustic guitar and the cello are a wonderful combination, creating a signature new acoustic sound called 'World Music for the Soul'. This is their first album of 9 on the market. Acoustic Eidolon, featuring Joe Scott on double neck guitjo and Hannah Alkire on cello are from Colorado and have graced stages throughout the US, Europe, Australia and Canada. With nine CDs and a DVD to their credit, these masterful artists continue to captivate audiences throughout the world with their boundless possibilities in blending Celtic, Folk, World & Latin music influences, something that Dirty Linen Magazine praises as "a sumptuous musical feast." They are described by the Swallow Hill Music Association as "an evening of brilliant instrumentality," and Georgia's Good Life Magazine enthuses, "Acoustic Eidolon offers concert-goers a chance to absorb some of the most powerful and intriguing music on the scene today."

A really lovely surprise and delight to listen to!
I came across this CD while searching for some "new" acoustic guitar music. I had never heard anything from Joe Scott before, had no idea if I'd like his playing/music. But I was so very pleasantly surprised! He's a terrific musician and composer. He has a delicate touch to provide that rare subtlety I never can get enough of in guitar music. The only tune that didn't thrill me was "Bonny Portmore", just a bit too heavy and a little depressing. All the others were wonderful. Very much loved his version of "Ashokan Farewell". Highly recommend this collection to anyone who enjoys acoustic guitar and traditional folk music.
