Gontiti is a duet of Japanese guitar virtuosos - Gonzalez Mikami and Titi Matsumura. They both produced many CDs, but this one is unique. 'Strings With Gontiti' features string orchestra at all tracks... I find that any plucked instrument sounds harmoniously with string orchestra and this CD contains peaceful, heartwarming, relaxing music of acoustic guitars and strings. Music was recorded in Tokyo, Los Angeles and Rio de Janeiro. Three compostions on this CD were arranged by the famous Japanese cellist and composer - Hajime Mizoguchi. I recommend this album to all fans of Neo-Classical music. CD is furnished with a 20-page colour booklet. You can listen to a couple of sound samples from this CD at Gontiti's official web-site.
I watched a movie that featured this composer's music and was intrigued by it. But the CD is very, very disappointing. It isn't even good "background music"--just bad music.
