Popis - INFINITY:
So you think the best American-tradition fingerstyle guitar comes from Nashville, California, or Texas? Or maybe Australia, Canada, or England? That may well be, but one guitarist in another corner of the world deserves a chance at notoriety. His name is Damir 'Hal' Halilic, and once you learn it, you won't forget it. Croatia offers much more talent than just top-notch downhill skiers, tennis players, and mixed martial arts fighters. Come sample the compositions of this fingerstyle guitar master. Tommy Emmanuel says: 'Hal is wonderful musician, and I admire his dedication to the guitar. I wish him success in his career and would like to see him take his music to the rest of the world.' 'The second I heard Hal play 'Under the Umbrella' I was hooked. I've seen fingerstyle guitarists come and go, but this guy is here to stay!' - Colin Williams, U.K. 'At the moment you think everything that can be said with an acoustic guitar has already been said, there will be a voice from somewhere in the world, and may it be Croatia, that suddenly tells you new stories. It happened to me when the guitar was in the hands of a guy named Hal, a classically trained player from Croatia. Hal plays in the best American fingerstyle tradition, but there always is this little something, this little extra, that makes his playing unique. Hey people, listen to him, this guy is great! -Thomas Kleemaier (Germany) Unlike Hal's second CD, OCEAN, which is considered a pure fingerstyle album, his third release, INFINITY, expands on the steel strings guitar expression in terms of technique, composition, and arrangement. Watch the videos for three songs from INFINITY at: www.myspace.com/halmusicland THIS IS NOT A RECORDING OF CROATIAN FOLK MUSIC!!!! It is important to note that all tracks on INFINITY were recorded in accordance with solo fingerstyle rules, meaning that no overdubbing was performed. There is only one guitar playing on each track at any given time. This original material is innovative in the realm of fingerstyle guitar playing. It is highlighted by diverse and unique arrangements. Such a broad-minded approach showcases Hal's style, technique, and the infinite potential of steel strings guitar playing. Meri Trošelj was awarded Croatia's prestigous Porin Award in 2005 for 'Best Interpretation' for her effort on the song 'Speak To Me.' This was one of Croatia's first songs to receive national notoriety while being sung in English. Damir Halilic, more casually known as Hal (pronounced ‘Hall’ in English), is a professional musician from Rijeka, Croatia. To date, he has published four critically-acclaimed albums. The success INFINITY launched his most recent effort, the new 3-disc mega-project entitled, TRILOGY. This ground-breaking effort was recorded in Nashville, TN and released during the summer of 2006. TRILOGY is predicted to be one of the largest projects in Croatian discography. Over the past few years, a great deal of Hal’s music has received radio airplay around the world. At times, his music has been heard over the airwaves in the United States, Australia, and Europe. This hard-earned recognition came after he performed several stellar live tours abroad. Hal has played and collaborated with many of the world’s top guitarists. Each of these artists have expressed their deep appreciation for his music and hold his work in high-regard. More recently, Hal has gained recognition for his concert-organizing abilities on the Croatian circuit, the crown jewel being his self-named extravaganza, Hal’s All Star Guitar Festival, which has become an annual event created in cooperation with the city of Rijeka.
