Acclaimed acoustic guitarist Lawrence Blatt, explores the natural relationship between colors, sounds and moods on his third recording, The Color of Sunshine.
After two self-produced solo guitar albums, Blatt stretches his sound on his latest CD to include other musicians as well as production by legendary guitarist William Ackerman. “Passion and intellect merge in Lawrence Blatt's compositions and performance. His musical instincts amaze me. He can move through a very broad landscape of musical influence and never seem imitative or insincere,” states Ackerman.
According to Blatt, “The basic concept of The Color of Sunshine is that both light/color and sound/pitch are a function of vibrating waves that are similar and related. Moreover, music and moods are often described using the metaphor of color, as in the passion and intensity of being ‘red hot,’ or the melancholy feeling of ‘the blues.’ Given this natural relationship, I used colors as the inspiration for different moods and emotions on an entire album. |
