Anyone with a deep appreciation of fingerstyle guitar will know already that Peter Finger numbers among the most impressive exponents of this particular style of playing. But most probably do not realize that, in addition to his performing skills, he is also an accomplished luthier. And so, the connection of these two sides, which becomes increasingly obvious on Made of Rosewood, is all the more enjoyable and intriguing. Because Finger used ten different guitars built by himself to record ten of his own compositions. And that's not all. In the CD's thoroughly designed booklet, he presents each of the instruments, underlining their individual structural and acoustic features and noting the special effect each has on the respective pieces played.
On the one hand, this confirms all one might expect from Peter Finger's virtuosic performances. Listening to Made of Rosewood leaves one speechless at the unbelievable precision and vigor displayed in the runs, at his rhythmic energy and at the worlds of sound he presents with great sensitivity. On the other hand, we are also made privy to lots of information about the man behind the music, his sense of humor, his motivation, the ideas he has while composing and his attention to detail. Made of Rosewood is therefore a remarkable blend of creative technique and technical creativity and thus far more than just another CD recorded by Peter Finger.

"With its engaging twists and turns, Made of Rosewood is best listened to attentively, and its beautiful booklet, with descriptions and color photos of all the guitars used, make it worth ordering the physical CD."
