*In process of stocking. 2022 stock.* Gyan Riley is a virtuoso guitarist and composer living in Brooklyn whose unique work expands the rich legacy of classical guitar music with influences from minimalism, flamenco, bossa nova, collection of music for solo guitar. Fluid, compelling, and beautiful, this is music you will return to again and again.
"This album pays homage to several of my musical mentors. I am forever grateful to these artists for the inspiration they have given me, not only for introducing me to unfamiliar music, but to new ways of hearing, seeing, and interpreting the world. This recording is also a reflection on the unexpectedly good things that for me have grown out of the hardships of the pandemic: new experiences, lessons learned, skills acquired, creative solutions, and adaptation inspired by necessity."
