Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

June 15, 2015 | Chris Biesterfeldt; Urban Mandolin

In fall of 2013 we raved about Chris Biesterfeldt's freshman recording boasting "his train-songish rendition of the classic 70's Weather Report jazz-fusion fave Teen Town is dead-on, laugh out loud accurate, and one of the freshest acoustic string jazz interpretations you'll hear." The heavily in demand Broadway multi-instrumentalist orchestra veteran's CD is available for purchase from your favorite online resources and we highly recommend including this in your "go-to" mandolin library. The 16 song collection of mostly classic bebop with some stirring pop side trips is a fret barn burner.

Classify under "Jazz Fusion Mandolin."
