Rich with expression, each track on "Melodia" is a unique vignette, ushering you to a special special place and into a special experience. "Appalachia" brings you to the mountains, yet has the warmth and soul of a hymn. "Ice Lake" evokes the mysterious, yet majestic beauty of an expansive winter landscape. "Salute to the Torchbearer" evokes the classic beauty and nobility of the Statue of Liberty. "Merry Go Round Waltz" returns you to the innocence and joy of childhood. "Midnight Prayer" is the soul's lyric call to the mystery of the night, yearning to soar beyond it's boundaries.....
"Melodia" is Gary Schnitzer's first CD of his own original music. His first six CD's are lush and elegant musical arrangements of already popular romantic melodies, featuring the solo violin as "torch" singer accompanied by an instrumental ensemble. "Melodia" has a much larger symphonic sound than Gary's previous CD's. However, Gary's passionate and lyric violin solos still play the starring role.
Melodia is a full 54 minutes and 14 seconds long. Long enough to take your spirit on an enchanting magic carpet ride though a full range of feeling.
Industry review:
"Another album by Gary Schnitzer means me gushing all over it and lapping every note up with crazed abandon. Gary’s violin skills are without a doubt unparalleled. On “Melodia” he composes compassionate relaxing pieces that are symphonic in scope. Harmony is everything to Schnitzer and here he ensures that listeners will get a myriad of experiences throughout a listen of the full album. Truly a master at his craft, Gary Schnitzer is one of modern classical giants." -- J-Sin, Editor, Smother.net
