First album from the Four Elements (Water) by Nick Ashron. The River Song Suite's gentle acoustic guitar invokes the healing spirit of nature, woodlands, rivers and warm sunny days, and is one of Nick Ashron's most popular albums - ideal for easy listening and relaxation as well as inspiration.
This album has been compared with the works of many classical artists including Debussey, and is dedicated to all those creative forces that build nature - let us not forget them.
Los Angeles based Violinist and fellow Elfin Spiral guest artist Trevor Lloyd has also released a collaborate album with Nick Ashron - Twilight World - whose gentle yet energetic instrumental folk music features acoustic guitar by Nick with additional violin arrangements building on Nick's compositions from The River Song Suite.
