DIRK K
- guitar, all instruments.
At an early age, my parents introduced me to the music of Antônio Carlos
Jobim. His music featured a singer, Astrud Gilbero, the style of music was
Bossa Nova. I fell in love immediately. All those great compositions were
hidden somewhere in my mind for years. It wasn't until I started performing
with the Brazilian singer and guitarist Kleber Jorge, that all those memories
came back and as a result, I decided to record 10 of my favorite Jobim classics.
I know, I am not the first one to do so, but I hope to give these compositions
a new and fresh appeal with my signature Dirk K guitar sound.
I dedicate this CD to my fans.
A great collection of
Jobim Compositions.

My Romance Genre:
Contemporary Jazz |
|

Date: October 29, 2005 |
DIP Records 2005
My Romance
is a great collection of romantic music celebrating those
unforgettable moments. Body and Soul, Someone To Watch Over Me, The
Nearness Of You, Beautiful Love, My Romance. All of these songs sending
a message of Love and Hope. This record is similar to Urban Standards and
Urban Standards Vol. II because all the arrangements combine Jazz standards
with contemporary grooves and flying guitar runs. This time around I added
more orchestral elements such as Cello, Flugelhorn, Flutes and Strings all
played with my guitar synthesizer. In addition I am introducing my new
handmade classical guitar by German Vazquez Rubio. Another unique element to
the record is the addition of the Mini Moog. During a recent trip to Europe,
I decided to bring one back with me and found it fit perfectly with the
sound of the new record. I also wanted to insure the best possible sound
quality so I had the record mastered by Evren Goknar at Capitol Mastering.
And as always, you will hear some outstanding performances by Leon Bisquera
and C.C. Thomas Jr. I am extremely pleased with the outcome and hope you
will enjoy listening to it as much I enjoyed recording it.

Urban Standards Volume II
You asked for it so here it is!
This is the follow up to the highly successful Urban Standards.
Urban Standards Vol. II combines some of the best American Jazz
Standards ever written. Filled with contemporary grooves and flying
guitar runs, this CD is a must-have for Jazz aficionados. This album is a
little more personal than it's predecessor because I performed, programmed
and arranged most of instruments myself. In addition, you will hear some
outstanding bass performances by C.C. Thomas and Osama Afifi.
