Intimate original chamber music John Finbury – American Nocturnes/Final Days of July

Intimate original chamber music John Finbury – AMERICAN NOCTURNES/FINAL DAYS OF JULY:  In June of 2020, I reviewed producer/arranger John’s wonderful “Quatro” album, which got near perfect marks… on this new album, John and his players give you some of the most intimate original chamber music you will ever listen to… here’s a video clip for the album…

…since you’re there already, I strongly recommend that you SUBSCRIBE to John Finbury’s YouTube channel, so you can watch many more exciting performances.

The players on this new excursion are Tim Ray – piano; Eugene Friesen – cello; Roni Eytan – harmonica; and Roberto Cassan – accordion… Produced and arranged by John Finbury and Bob Patton… though the album is partially classified as New Age, John’s music is always unique and different… the beautiful “Winter Waltz” even has some strong elements of jazz, and will be a favorite among DJ’s, I believe.

The gentle guitar on “Black Tea” melds seamlessly in with the other instruments, giving you the gift of pleasant (yet stirring) memories… the relaxed pacing makes the tune a total winner.

I had no trouble (at all) in making my choice for personal favorite of the eleven enchanting songs offered up… the title track, “Final Days Of July“, will touch your heart deeply with its’ beautifully crafted tones!

I give John and his musical partners a MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED rating, with an “EQ” (energy quotient) score of 4.98 for this fine album.  Get more information on the Green Flash Music page for the release.          Rotcod Zzaj
