Falk Zenker - Landschaften

Falk Zenker’s first CD with Acoustic Music Records once again gives evidence of the abundant expressiveness of this young German guitarist. His music is intimate and is uncompromisingly personal. His manner of playing is both whimsical and concrete, his technique is outstanding, his sonorous wealth gives wings to the listener’s fantasy. Classical and Spanish musical culture is always present in his music, as are jazz, southern rhythms and ethnic elements. “Landschaften” (Landscapes) is a sensuous experience of the highest order; it carries us off to a world of pulsating rhythms, distant, enchanted beauty and austere, dark shadows. Falk Zenker is an impressively multifaceted musician, who leaves the horizon of the purely guitaristic way behind and takes off into a world of sounds that swings between fiery intensity and meditative serenity. Falk Zenker is more than just a guitarist, he is an outstanding artist of sound.
