Violin Romance Recordings Announces
"Melodia"
Melodia,
the new CD by Gary Schnitzer,
is a recording of all original
music with a compelling symphonic
sound. You’ll hear a full
section of strings – violins,
violas, cellos, and bass – with
accompanying horns, accordion,
guitar, dulcimer, chimes, bells,
or calliope in many songs. All
the while, Gary’s passionate
violin solos are prominently featured
above, and sometimes below the
melodies and rhythms.
Rich with
expression, each song depicts a
unique vignette of a
special place and experience. "Appalachia" brings
you to the mountains, yet has the
warmth and soul of a hymn. "Ice
Lake" evokes the mysterious,
yet majestic beauty of an expansive
winter landscape. "Salute
to the Torchbearer" evokes
the classic beauty and nobility
of the Statue of Liberty. "Merry
Go Round Waltz" returns you
to the innocence and joy of childhood.

Customer Review "While Gary's music has
always moved my emotions, MELODIA
is his most consistently evocative
collection to date. The pure
tones of his violin send shivers
of delight, even bliss, throughout
my body, and the melodies arouse
the full range of emotions -
especially the high endorphin
producing ones! " -
