My Take
Listening to Goran Sollscher feels like breathing crisp Nordic air. Born in Vaxjo, Sweden in 1955 and trained in Copenhagen, he announced himself by winning the Paris international guitar competition at just twenty-three. What I love is his range, moving from Bach to the Beatles with equal sincerity, and his command of the unusual eleven-string instrument that gives his sound a world all its own. Awarded the Litteris et Artibus medal in 2007, he never plays to show off; the affection for the music itself glows through every phrase. Quiet masters like him are exactly my kind of artist.
