REMINDER! GILLES HAS A NEW CD!!

My friend, Gilles Apap, has released his second CD on Apapasiz Records. Featuring a selection of mainly-classical show violin pieces, it's really nice! Gilles calls it "No Piano On That One" because it is mainly a selection of pieces usually performed with violin and piano. Gilles has substituted the piano with a wide variety of instruments, such as the Roumanian cymbalom, accordian, contrabass, harp, and string orchestra. For a couple of sample tunes and more info, check it out at: http://www.bluegrasswest.com/nopiano2.htm

PS - Gilles called us from Brittany, where he is currently performing with an orchestra, plus adapting Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" for his new band as heard on the CD.
