Album Description
Garrett's unique, and wholly individual style, pays as much homage to Metallica as to Mozart. His forthcoming record covers an incredibly diverse selection of repertoire, representing his love for many genres, and the ability to tackle each successfully. Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal," is cleverly reinterpreted, as is Queen's ballad, "Who Wants to Live Forever." AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" is given a memorable new twist, alongside, "He's a Pirate," from "Pirates of the Caribbean." Given his enduring commitment to his first musical love, David still includes some classical selections on his American debut, including the last movement of Vivaldi's "Summer" from The Four Seasons, and Bach's "Air". Not to be satisfied with only imaginative covers, David also displays his own deft writing skills with notable originals, including "Chelsea Girl."

 Beautiful music! November 8, 2009
AvgMom2 (Long Island, NY)
I bought this DVD just before I was to go David Garrett's concert with my family in NYC where he played almost all of the songs on this DVD. David Garrett is, hands down, one of the most talented violinists in the world who plays classical, as well as the modern music, with such ease. Seeing him in person, of course, is so much better than just listening to him, since you could actually see him interact with his other musicians (each one very, VERY, talented in their own right.) A great listening music in the car or in the house, this DVD soothes the soul. I highly recommend it.
Name to remember forever - DAVID GARRETT October 25, 2009
SharmaG (NY, NY USA)
Have you ever heard a violinist SING with their instrument? One who breaths and creates sentences, phrases and tells a story. You cannot help but be transformed by his talent. David Garret is one-of-a-kind. He is blessed with talent that hasn't been seen for years. He is blessed with a warm beauty that exudes from the inside out. Aside from his arresting looks and superb violin skills, his original compositions are cinematic and revolutionary. David is indeed a living legend, even though he was only born in 1981. This world is a better place with his music. Virtuoso, child prodigy and more, this Juilliard grad leaves you breathless and invigorated. If you need an extra energy boost for your workouts, he's the solution. When you're tired and need a little pep, David is the one. Having seen him first on PBS, we have joined the ranks of his growing admirers. There's not much left to say except, BUY THIS CD now and see him perform live anywhere you can. You don't have to love the violin -- you don't have to know classical music. This cool cat will take you on a journey and you will forever remember him.

I heard David Garrett on PBS and ordered the CD the same night. the only disappointment I have is that it seems to not have all the pieces that were on PBS. And, later downloaded the MP3 for my computer and it had one more piece than the CD. Hmmm. But, overall, am very happy with both.
