IMPROVIZETA
As seen and heard on ESPN (Star-Spangled Banner) and quite unlike his other albums, this was recorded from a live concert appearance to over 5000 students. Drew was featured on tours showcasing electronic violin technology and that a violin can sound like virtually anything. The point was to inspire students to think of the different possibilities that lie ahead for them on a string instrument. Absolutely everything you hear comes from the violin. It is amazing to listen to and imagine Drew playing the violin to create all of this. An energetic, boldly different album that has been inspirational to students around the world. Audience favorites include Star-Sangled Banner, Electric Folklore, and Montana Meadow.
