Bio | Reviews | CD's/MP3's | Concert Program |
"The eight-string guitar extends the register and capabilities of the standard six-stringed instrument... Andrew Schulman has played the eight-string exclusively since 1979 and he made, for the most part, an eloquent argument for the instrument...He played with sensitivity, a graceful introspection, careful workmanship and an ear for timbral shading."
