Blues Night in the Kurpark
With his blues, roots, rock and ballads, through his inimitable sound over decades of international touring, virtuoso Canadian guitarist / singer / songwriter Marty Hall, has developed music into his own high art form of minimalism - his trademark. His repertoire includes deeply emotional, original compositions such as "Precious Love", "Swirlin' Round And Round", "Center Lane", as well as very personal interpretations of 20th century blues and roots classics such as Willie Dixon, Freddie King, Jimmy Reed and B. King.
Round", "Center Lane", as well as very personal interpretations of blues and roots classics of the 20th century, such as those of Willie Dixon, Freddie King, Jimmy Reed and B.B. King. His music, best summarized and expressed in the words of the critics:
Süddeutsche Zeitung: "Hall, it seems, has stuffed a whole band into his guitar. All the voices of a complete arrangement can be heard. Chords, bass lines, rhythm, backbeats. Add to this playful interjections, ornamental solos. To conjure all this out of an instrument requires not only a high degree of playing culture and instrumental class, but also a great deal of empathy.
above all requires a great deal of sensitivity and discipline in order not to solo everything to death, but to give the voices equal space. Hall's vocals merge with this instrumental sound. It is extremely puristic, yet full of intimate warmth and passion. This is truly great music". (Andreas Pernpeintner)
