Presenting Frenchman Philippe Fouquet"s stunning debut on Harp Guitar Music, produced by Philippe and Harp Guitar Music founder Gregg Miner. This is Philippe"s third CD, and (other than one previous track on an old kontragitarre) his harp guitar debut. And what a debut it is! In these 13 new solo compositions - 8 on his Brunner harp guitar and 5 on his Wingert 6-string - Philippe"s heart seems stripped bare for all the audience to hear, feel and absorb. His music is joyous, sad, uplifting and heart-wrenching. It is life. Philippe took 1st prize in the Marcel Dadi contest in 2001 and was fingerstyle laureate for the contest Les révélations acoustiques in 2006, organized by the French paper Acoustic.
