Artist: STEVE VAI
Album: "SOUND THEORIES VOL. I & II (2CD)"

Year: 2007
Media type: CD

Even in a career filled with great moments, "Sound Theories Vol. I & II," the double-album live recording of guitar virtuoso Steve Vai and the Holland Metropole Orkest, stands out as a dazzling technical accomplishment, the culmination of a 25-year friendship, and a dream come true.

"The first time I heard an orchestra as a young boy, I instinctively knew I was hearing the result of little black dots strategically placed on manuscript paper by a person who could capture -- and make real -- the audio vision of their mind's eye. That's what I wanted to do," says Vai, who went on to compose his first orchestra score at fourteen. By his late teens, however, it was his undeniable guitar wizardry that set the world on fire, so although he continued to amass "hefty heaps" of scores through the years, hearing them performed by an orchestra seemed way out of reach.
