From the Faraway Nearby (2001) Audio CD

Excerpting from an American Record Guide review (May 2002): This third CD by The Goldspiel/Provost Classical Guitar Duo “is a mix of contemporary works, folk tunes, and jazz arrangements. The centerpiece of the recital is From the Faraway Nearby, a six-movement work by New York composer Charles Griffin. Much of the work is obsessively repetitive, with constantly shifting ostinatos creating a backdrop that is at once hypnotic and engaging in its play with expectation and meter. The harmonic language is largely diatonic, though not without some provocative clashes between melodic figure and ostinato ground. The work was written for the Goldspiel-Provost Duo and they have clearly lived with it long enough to give it a solid, sensitive reading.” Other composers on the disc are Aaron Copland, Edward Flower, George Gershwin, and Máximo Diego Pujol.
