		<title>Der Erlkönig</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a video of Hilary Hahn playing Schubert&#8217;s Der Erlkönig as arranged by Heinrich Wilhelm Ernst: 



I wasn&#8217;t familiar with this arrangement, and was blown away by it, and the performance as well.
For those who might not now, Der Erlkönig is one of Schubert&#8217;s best known songs, a setting of Goethe&#8217;s poem of the same [...]]]></description>

		<title>George Lynch &#8211; Orchestral Mayhem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I found out about this George Lynch CD in which he plays some orchestral pieces. It supposedly came out in June, but there&#8217;s very little information about it. I can&#8217;t even find anything on his own website.

I&#8217;m hardly a Lynch fan, though I was fairly into Dokken&#8217;s Back in the Attack in my younger days. [...]]]></description>

		<title>No Yngwie, That&#8217;s Not a Fugue</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While we&#8217;re on the subject of fugues, I was recently reminded of Yngwie Malmsteem&#8217;s Guitar Concerto.
I haven&#8217;t really heard the whole thing, but when I noticed one of the movements was titled &#8220;Fugue&#8221; I was intrigued. Unfortunately the &#8220;fugue&#8221; isn&#8217;t it a fugue at all.
     
I know that in the grand [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jeff Beck plays Puccini</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been listening to a lot of Jeff Beck lately. I&#8217;m constantly amazed by his vocal-like phrasing and complete control of the guitar.
The track that really stands out to me on his latest album is Nessun Dorma, from Puccini&#8217;s Turandot:
     
I generally have an issue with combining rock instruments with orchestras. [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Future of Death and the Maiden</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve been here before, you may have noticed the site looks quite different. It has a lot to do with my new plans for Death and the Maiden.
My original intention was to think of this as a &#8220;band&#8221;, which would eventually have other musicans, play live, release CD&#8217;s, etc. But right now I&#8217;m focusing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fugue in C Minor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a new video for Bach&#8217;s Fugue in C minor from the Well-Tempered Clavier.

I was going to do it with just guitar at first, but I started messing around with drums, and well&#8230;there you go.
If you&#8217;ve been here before you may have noticed the site looks a bit different. More on that in the next [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tab for Sinfonia in B Minor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I finally got around to making a tab for the Sinfonia No. 15 in B Minor. If you&#8217;re looking to work on your tapping chops, this might be a good place to start. 

Download it here as a PowerTab file and here as a pdf.

And here&#8217;s the video of the song:

		<title>Review at Prognaut</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ron Fuchs wrote a review of A Metal Tribute To String Quartet over at Prognaut. Big props to him for taking the time to listen to and write about it.

Apart from that, things have been a bit slow lately. I admit I&#8217;ve been focusing more on my own music lately, but I&#8217;ve been working on [...]]]></description>
