Guitarist Plays Duets By Herself
Guitarist Plays Duets By Herself Sharon Isbin
This guitarist enjoys occasional episodes of musical schizophrenia by David Srebnik Recording duets with yourself, meaning recording both parts of a duet, is not a new technique. You record the first part, and then record the second part as you listen in headphones to the music you recorded first. Guitarist Sharon Isbin calls it an "in-her-body" experience.

Listen to Sharon Isbin - and her music - by clicking on the audio bar above.

Sharon Isbin's latest CD ("Journey to the New World") offers four Renaissance Duets, including the John Johnson tune, "Greensleeves." The CD also includes a new arrangement of "Strings and Threads" by Mark O'Connor and features two performances with Singer Joan Baez.
