"....John Carlini and Don Stiernberg have reinvigorated venerable jazz standards by pursuing a strategy that taps unlikely precedents from the past while aiming toward the future."     

David McCarty, ACOUSTIC GUITAR magazine, March 2005

Tone Poets

Don is proud to be included on this two CD set produced by David Grisman featuring 42 musicians playing either a 1922 Gibson Lloyd Loar F5 mandolin or a 1933 Martin OM45 guitar. The resulting study in how artists bring forth sound from acoustic instruments is a revelation. Don and John Carlini contribute one track, "Moonlight in Vermont".

"It's not too much of a stretch of the imagination to see Thelonious Monk nodding in approval at Stiernberg's quaver interpreting the composer's signature intervals on " 'Round Midnight."
