Description

Connie’s debut album,  “Waking or Sleeping” is a collection of wide-ranging pieces for classical guitar.  You’ll hear the jazz-influenced harmonies of Variations on a Theme of Django Reinhardt by Leo Brouwer;  the atonal and restless Quatre Pieces Breves by Frank Martin;  two liltingly nostalgic Valses by Frederic Chopin;  the evocative Castillos de España by Federico Moreno Torroba;  the mournful and poignant Elegy by Johann Kaspar Mertz;  and one of Connie’s own arrangements of traditional hymns entitled Three Spiritual Songs.
