Dreams of a World: Folk-inspired Music for Guitar CD Sharon Isbin (© Teldec Classics, 1999) Sharon plays classical guitar so beautifully it sounds like an angel’s harp! This album presents some of the most gorgeous guitar music I have ever heard. Sharon writes: “The inspiration for this album is folk music – from the Appalachian Mountains, the British Isles, Spain, Greece, Israel, Cuba, Venezuela and Brazil. Folk music was what first drew me to the guitar as a child. Pete Seeger, Theodore Bikel, Burl Ives, Malvina Reynolds, Joan Baez…these are just some of the singers I grew up hearing. My scientist/lawyer parents were avid folk dancers in their spare time and I discovered exotic new cultures in the excitement of their rehearsals and costumed performances. Now, having traveled to some forty countries, I have come to appreciate and love the beautiful music associated with these diverse cultures that expresses the history, legends, identities, and passions of a people." With this CD, Sharon won the 2001 Grammy award for Best Instrumentalist Soloist Performance.
