Eric Tingstad and Nancy Rumbel’s incomparable gift of music is brought to bear by the warm and intimate sound of wood, reeds, and string. Their skillful combination of a single guitar and solo oboe produces music that is both intimate and grand in scope. This is American acoustic — a genre Tingstad & Rumbel rightfully call their own, crafted during nearly 20 years of touring, dozens of distinctive recordings, and a Grammy win for Best New Age Album with
ACOUSTIC GARDEN.
Among Tingstad & Rumbel’s many collaborators, keyboardist Spencer Brewer marked his Narada debut with EMERALD. Since then, he has dazzled audiences worldwide with his impeccable technique and heart-touching melodies. Reaching out — through music — is fundamental to Brewer’s approach to life: in addition to music featured at the 1988 and 1992 Olympic Games,
The Oprah Winfrey Show, NPR, and CNN, Brewer has scored the National Big Brothers/Big Sisters theme song and the award-winning film on racism,
The Color of Fear, among many other socially-aware projects.
NARADA CLASSICS presents two landmark contemporary instrumental recordings,
LEGENDS and EMERALD, now available on this special 2-CD set.
