Prominent Russian guitar-virtuoso Roman Miroshnichenko's album «Plays Daniel Figueiredo», featuring 25-piece St. Petersburg Studio Orchestra and pianist Rannieri Oliveira. The album includes 10 tracks, composed by 2-time Latin Grammy Winner Daniel Figueiredo.
"This recording is very special to me. Having a reputation as a «guitar shredder», I recorded (what I call "slow motion") an album that will surely surprise many by the absence of a hurricane of passages typical for my playing. And this is a real revelation! Daniel's music is very poignant and helped me show another of my own musical facets. Daniel and I agreed that acoustic and electric guitars in the album drive the orchestra. And we developed our own conception. This incredible musicianship is extraordinary, and this is very special album!” - Roman Miroshnichenko noted.
