Pieces Of Road
Ravello, 2020
8/10
A classical guitarist and composer, Stuart Weber returns with his Rocky Mountain heritage intact on these heartfelt and creative songs that pay homage to the American West.
“Anniversary Waltz” starts the record with Angella Ahn on violin, Maria Ahn holding down cello, and Antigoni Goni and Weber adding guitar to the dreamy, eloquent landscape that’s certainly not short on sublime beauty.
“Pieces Of Road” takes up the rest of the album and is comprised of 3 movements, and includes deft and cautious guitar work from Weber that varies from calm and emotive to the more firm exit that displays incredible finger picking, as Weber thinks back to his youth.
Now three decades into recording albums, Weber brings his vast talent and imaginative mind to yet another installment of timeless, meticulous and radiant songwriting.
