ALTIPLANOS: REFLECTIONS OF A GEM (2005)

For a follow up to his acclaimed 2000's solo instrumental recording Intuite, here is Altiplanos, a 10th  solo album, showcasing a varied program of gorgeous vocal numbers, provocative improvised pieces, intimate ballads and strikingly original composed works.

There's a story behind each tune. And each performance by Bensusan is brimming with passion and grace. While Intuite may have been a triumphant tour de force for the French-Algerian virtuoso, he takes it up a notch with this offering.

"Pierre Bensusan is the most creative energy in the world of steel string guitar by far."
William Piburn (Fingerstyle Guitar Magazine-USA/March 05)
