Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.\n\nAmazon.com\n\nMusic both old and new, but all of it inspired by the timeless modal harmony of medieval and Mediterranean cultures: this is the subject of John Williams's brilliant guitar disc for Sony, which also features his debut as a composer. The main work is his own \"Aeolian Suite\" for guitar and chamber orchestra, based on both original and 14th-century tunes (one of which, the \"Saltarello,\" appeared on early-music pioneer David Munrow's disc called Instruments of the Middle Ages). The suite is a lovely piece of writing, deftly composed, and neither tacky nor pretentious. It's paired with an inspired assortment of spiritually related but diverse arrangements and original pieces by Satie, Theodorakis, Domeniconi, and an emotionally intense four-movement work called \"Stélé,\" by Australian composer Phillip Houghton. Naturally, Williams performs each piece expertly, but most important, he makes his instrument sing, and that's just what the music demands. Simply super. --David Hurwitz\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00000C28V\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00000C28V.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:John Williams\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
