Music

When David Garrett wanted a title for his new album, he came straight to the point and called it Music. A former child prodigy of the classical world who signed to Deutsche Grammophon when he was only 13, he now provokes Garrett-mania among hordes of international fans with his spectacular fusions of rock and pop with symphonic or baroque traditions. To him, it's all music and all equally valid. <br><br>'I never stopped playing classical music,' he points out. 'But when you become really accomplished on the violin, you can literally do anything. It's just a matter of what you really want to do with music.'<br><br>On the new album, David bridges the gap between classical, pop, rock, and R&B covering everything from Coldplay's 'Viva La Vida' to Justin Timberlake's 'Cry Me A River' to classical favorites Beethoven's 'Scherzo' and Clementi's 'Sonatina.' The US version of the album also features an exclusive new track, 'Bring Me To Life' featuring Syd Duran.
