Asha ~ Apassionata

Описание: ‘Apassionata’, a romantic instrumental piece by Asha Download/CD available here ~ http://www.ashaquinn.com/stardance.htm

I recorded this for a hit album called “Wings of Fire”, produced with Phil Thornton, and released by New World Music, in 1990. It was a great success at the time, and very joyful. That was great period for new age music.
Now I have put it on a compilation album of instrumental pieces “Stardance”.

I love the sound of the romantic electric lead guitar here: friend and producer Phil played the memorable lead guitar solo on this track!
I love the sound of an oboe in Italian Baroque pieces, especially by Antonio Vivaldi and Tomasso Albinoni. There was one piece in particular I love called Concerto for Oboe and Strings by Albinoni.
‘Apassionata’ contains both the plaintive oboe and the descriptive lead guitar… bittersweet in tone; alternating between joy and melancholy.
We filmed for this in Turkey, on the Lycean coast near Fethiye, hostessed by artist friends Parisa Agahi and Isabelle Cordes. This took us to Kaya, Ovacik, Fethiye and Fatalya… to their houses, to nature and to the Aegean. On the way we met several cats, a white horse and a baby tortoise… in fact we rescued three tortoises as they trundled purposefully down the highway!

In Kaya, where Isabelle lives, there is a great restaurant… a gorgeously quiet and peaceful garden place to hang out, eat well, play, meditate and compose!
Here are the public details of our artist friends, and of the restaurant. Parisa and Isabelle’s work is for sale and they are also available for commission:
