Falk Zenker - Gedankenreise

Falk Zenker has established himself on the acoustic guitar scene as an outstandingly creative artist with an unmistakable style, be that as a soloist on his albums, as a composer of soundtracks, as the artistic director or as an international concert musician. His new solo album, “Gedankenreise”, (“Journey Of Thoughts”) reveals the broad horizon of a highly expressive instrumentalist with a mature tone, superior technique and a fascinating stylistic vocabulary. In twelve compositions, this experienced guitarist gives a voice to his imagination and manages to convey his “Journey Of Thoughts” to the listener’s reality by means of a nylon string guitar, calimba and a zither. On this third solo album, passionate improvisations mesh with musical colorings inspired from the classical age in Weimar or the early Middle Ages, with sounds from the Mediterranean and Andalusia, with a traditional melody from the Chilean Andes. Together, they amalgamate to form a highly entertaining work of art for the acoustic guitar in convincing sound quality – imaginative, personal, masterful.
