Pierre Bensusan: Song Dedicated to Michael Hedges
“So Long Michael” Pierre Bensusan
Peter Andersson who hails from Sweden recommended that I check out this video by French Guitarist Pierre Bensusan.
Well, I did and here it is!
Wonderful sensitive playing by Pierre for sure.
“So Long Michael” performed by Pierre Bensusan (www.pierrebensusan.com) in concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Takoma Park, Maryland, USA on May 23, 2012.
Described by the L.A. Times as “one of the most unique and brilliant acoustic guitar veterans in the world music scene today”, Pierre Bensusan was voted “Best World Music Guitar Player in 2008″ by Guitar Player Magazine Readers Choice. His name became synonymous with contemporary acoutsic guitar genius, long before the terms New Age, New Acoustic Music or World Music were invented. He has the ability to make a single guitar sound like an entire band as he brings the audience on a mesmerizing musical journey.”
