A Million Ways to Play - Tracy Silverman
Finding His Voice |
|
 |
"Tracy has developed his own unique style of violin playing - a marvel of expressiveness... Hearing Tracy Silverman play his six-string electric violin immediately reminded me not only of the great jazz and rock performers and Pakistani qawwalisingers like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (where the real music is in the slide btween the notes), but it also made me think of the prose style of Jack Kerouac, so deeply influenced by his listening to the rhythms and melodic arcs of improvised jazz."
- Pulitzer Prize and Grammy Award winning composer John Adams
"I entered Juilliard wanting to be the next Jasha Heifetz but I left wanted to be the next Jimi Hendrix. My musical odyssey has brought me full-circle - from classical roots to rock to jazz to world music and now back to the classical world as a soloist."
