This versatile composer and instrumental performer displays his technical and writing versatility on his debut CD Spirit Wild.
Don's acoustic guitar style, sometimes compared to that of Michael Hedges, combines innovative uses of altered tunings, two-handed techniques and effects. The pieces on this album fill the meditative and ambient portions of the listening spectrum without leaning into crystalline fluff.
