Review of Elektrisk Guitar

Posted on by

“Sein Stil ist von großer Klarheit und künstlerischer Reife gezeichnet, seine Kompositionen bleiben trotz Lust am Experiment in jedem Moment melodisch zugänglich und emotional offen, und das gesamte Album wird von einer souveränen Eigenständigkeit und Wärme getragen, zu der man gerade im anstehenden Herbst und Winter sehr gerne immer wieder zurückkehren wird.”  (5/6)

New Instrumental Album out September 27th

Posted on by

Dear friends of Il Tempo Gigante,
I’m very happy to announce that I finally have a new album coming out on 27th of September 2019.
The album – which is called Elektrisk Guitar – will be released under my own name, Rolf Hansen, and not Il Tempo Gigante. It’s an exploration of the electric guitar as a solo instrument and contains 13 pieces wich are a kind of songs without words. Half of the album is arranged for one guitar only, and the other half for respectively 2, 3, and 4 guitars. I’ve been given the chance to be able to release this material on the Berlin label Karaoke Kalk for which I feel very grateful. I’m very happy with – and proud of – these new recordings and I’m so looking forward to sharing them with all of you in September.
It’s possible to preorder the Vinyl here: https://rolfhansen.bandcamp.com/album/elektrisk-guitar
