Reverie by Daniel Estrem Daniel Estrem : Reverie.
 Colorful classical guitar.

This collection is a well-conceived recording of guitar artistry. Daniel Estrem performs his new arrangements for classical guitar that draw in the listener with his tonal variety and understated technique. The elegant interpretations breathe a unique vitality into these evocative masterworks.

The selected music takes the listener on a dreamlike journey of introspection and imparts a sense of tranquility. The contemplative pieces, mostly written for keyboard, retain their idiomatic flavor and musical integrity when performed on classical guitar. The charming voice of the classical ukulele can be heard on two of the thirty selections.
