This Contest Has Ended The Winner Has Been Emailed. Thank You For Your Participation!
I have always been a fan of classical music. I am convinced that it is a divinely inspired genre of music. I'm also a "think outside the box" kind of gal and I love the union of classical with other styles of music.David Garrett has been performing sold-out classical violin shows since he was a young boy, playing with the London Philharmonic, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Russian National Orchestra by age 12.
I was sent David's latest CD, Rock Symphonies to review for Music Moms. I was ecstatic! First of all, he is sooo easy to look at. If he couldn't play a note I would enjoy just looking at him. He has a dark mysterious look. He reminds me of Brad Pitt in Interview With A Vampire.
Oh okay, back to the music. In the Rock Symphonies CD, David uniquely blends his classical violin skills with rock-and-roll songs. My absolute favorite is track one, where David amazingly mixes classical with Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." Rock on! I love it!
He also does a high energy, rock arrangement of Beethoven's 5th. Along with songs from Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith, David brings a fresh and unique spin on the genre to a new generation of music lovers.
This month, PBS will air his sold-out concert performance in Berlin. But you don't have to wait until then to experience this
