A Light So Fair: Peaceful Guitar Instrumentals
Ron Block
A Light So Fair is an album of 14 peace-filled, sparse, acoustic guitar instrumentals.
The melodies are variously inspired by the morning sunlight on the fields in Tennessee, walks in the Yorkshire countryside, a river in Scotland behind Huntly Castle, writers George MacDonald, John Donne, and C.S. Lewis, melodies of Stephen Foster, and ballad
A Light So Fair is an album of 14 peace-filled, sparse, acoustic guitar instrumentals.
The melodies are variously inspired by the morning sunlight on the fields in Tennessee, walks in the Yorkshire countryside, a river in Scotland behind Huntly Castle, writers George MacDonald, John Donne, and C.S. Lewis, melodies of Stephen Foster, and ballad books from the 1800s.
The focus is on simplicity, tone, and nuance, with the intention that listeners would be able to take away some of that peace for themselves.
Some stellar voices add background vocals. Suzanne Cox, Sierra Hull, Kate Rusby, Damien O'Kane, and Erica Block all bring some lovely, ethereal vocal parts to the mix.
