Editorial Reviews
Minneapolis Star Tribune
"Gulezian ranges far beyond folk, playing hard-driving music that recalls Leo Kottke and the late Michael Hedges … dazzling."

Product Description
Michael Gulezian (gu-LAY-ze-in) is one of the most highly acclaimed solo acoustic instrumental guitarists of our time. He is a phenomenal technical guitarist with the rare ability to transcend his own virtuosity, creating music that touches and moves people at the deepest level.

For more than two decades, Michael has unpretentiously walked onstage and delivered one riveting performance after another. Concert at St. Olaf College fully displays the intensity, nuance, energy, and emotion of a master musician lovingly engaged with his audience in the mystery of self-revelation, creating music of understated virtuosity, atmospheric power, ecstatic joy, and haunting beauty.

Concert at St. Olaf College is reminiscent of the groundbreaking tone, tenor, and timbre of Michael's critically acclaimed Takoma Records debut, Unspoken Intentions. All nine songs are performed in open tunings; five are performed on 12-string guitar, and four with bottleneck slide. In addition to his original pieces, Michael includes an overdriven cover of Leo Kottke's "Watermelon," and an other-worldly rendition of J.S. Bach's "Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring."

This is an exceptionally listenable live concert CD, recorded by Grammy Award winning engineer Richard Adler (Alison Krauss, Bela Fleck). With twelve minutes of enhanced concert video footage, Concert at St. Olaf College is a must-have CD for anyone who appreciates the highest level of solo acoustic instrumental guitar artistry.
