Biography

Acoustic/fingerstyle guitarist Edward Gerhard is one of the genre's most gifted and highly regarded players. Although he currently resides in New England, Gerhard is originally from Philadelphia, where at the age of 14 he began playing guitar after being awestruck by the legendary Andrés Segovia. But it was another renowned guitarist, John Fahey, that inspired Gerhard to begin experimenting with… Read more in Amazon's Ed Gerhard Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Entrancingly Beautiful, November 5, 2003
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This masterpiece gets better with every listen. Spellbinding, deep, mystical, uncannily beautiful solo guitar. The emotional penetration of this music is profound-the clarity of sound, absolutely first rate. A work of genius and towering beauty. Thank you Ed Gerhard for the gift of this very special music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Luna Review, June 1, 2000
By Jack Emmott (Worcester Ma USA) - See all my reviews
As an amateur fingerstyle guitarist, I was informed that this CD is a "must have." Ed Gerhard is not only one of the finest guitarists to arrive during our time but also one of the most tasteful. There are no "duds" on this recording every one is a gem. The Handing Down is slower and even more beautiful than the version on the "Windham Hill Guitar Sampler." Every fingerstyle guitarist must learn this piece as it becomes the most beautiful tune in their repertoire. Jack

5.0 out of 5 stars A Standard, December 27, 2007
By C. Badham (salt lick city, ut) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've had the joy of seeing Ed Gerhard live a few times and attending a workshop he put on. Luna is my favorite work of his. I enjoy almost every tune on the disc which is something I can't say about most discs in the same genre. The recording quality is also top notch. Some acoustic fingerstyle recordings are either "too far back" or too "in your face". This one is just right.

I also recommend getting the Ed Gerhard song book. There are many lessons to be learned from learning to play his stuff. The biggest lesson I learned was actually from his workshop when he said pay attention to the dynamics more than anything else. Subtle, but he is a master of dynamics and it shows on his recordings.

Ed Gerhard is an artisan, a musical craftsman. He takes his work very seriously without seeming to take himself as seriously. Read more
