notes
Fingerstyle guitarist Mark McCain, and Houston Grand Opera cellist Erika Johnson bring together a unique blend of acoustic guitar and cello. Featured on National Public Radio programs such as Hearts of Space, Echoes, Pulling Strings, and many others, this duo breaks ground with a fusion of Appalachian to modern classical to Celtic and beyond.
Muriel Anderson (national fingerstyle guitar champion and world class guitarist) says..."Lovely work...great music!"
Phil Keaggy says..."...you guys are making some really beautiful music...I love what you are doing..."
Laszlo Varga, former Principal Cellist, New York Philharmonic says..."The rippling rhythms and harmonies of the guitar are complimented by the gorgeous sound of the singing cello line. The result is soothing, auditory pleasure. Bravi."
John La Grou (National Public Radio mastering engineer, recording engineer for Yo Yo Ma, Christopher Parkening, and hundreds of other high profile artists) says...
"Touch the Strings is one of those rare CD projects where everyone working in the building kept wandering into the mastering room much more frequently than normal -- everyone eventually asked me for a copy of this record -- and that has never happened before. Mark and Erika have created something unique and beautiful here -- this is the kind of timeless music that will last for decades in people's CD collections well after the 'flavors of the day' have come and gone." -- John La Grou, President - Millennia Media, Inc.
Grammy nominated producer and musician Fletch Wiley says...
