Rock Revolution

The German virtuoso violinist continues his entertaining journey through the rock and pop hits of the past few decades with an album of superbly wrought, powerful arrangements—Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” gains an extra layer of symphonic richness, while a touching tribute to Prince sees Garrett switch between his Stradivarius and a blistering electric violin on “Purple Rain”. “Bohemian Rhapsody” is effectively reinvented as a violin concerto, while Garrett displays his beautiful, round violin tone in Chicago’s “You’re the Inspiration”. Prepare to be inspired and moved.
