| Gary Karr AMADEUS CHAMBER ORCHESTRA |
Because this is Karr's very favorite ensemble and conductor, this live musical performance is on the highest level. The violinist in the Bottesini Grand Duo is nothing short of brilliant and inspired. The Rachmaninoff Vocalise is a rare treasure beautifully captured on this disc.

| Gary Karr CD Double Bass Bottesini |
Compact Disc Recording Bassist: Gary Karr
.....The Italian bel canto style was a major force in Karr's training which is evident in his unique interpretation of Bottesini's lyrical music. Karr demonstrates a freedom of expression which is still heard in 19th century Italian opera. When Ermanno Ferrari joins Karr in this recording, it is difficult to tell them apart. This CD truly captures the spirit and lyrical passions of Bottesini's music.

| Gary Karr CD Dreaming, The Songs of Lori Laitman |
Dreaming features a powerfully emotional new work by composer Lori Laitman who specifically wrote it for Gary Karr and Baritone voice. With its poignant and reflective texts written by Holocaust victims, both the voice of Will Sharp and the expressiveness of the doublebass makes this music come alive for a stunning sonic and poetic experience. The way these two artists work together in this extraordinary composition is nothing short of amazing.

Compact Disc Recording Bassist: Gary Karr

| Gary Karr and Harmon Lewis CD ORGANICALLY BASS |
This new CD from the Karr Lewis Duo features the music of Joseph Lauber, one of the most important doublebass composers of the 20th century. His "Morceaux d'Église" may be the first composition ever written for the combination of solo doublebass with organ. The remarkable sonority between the two instruments throughout this recording makes it a must not only for bassists, but for serious audiophiles as well.

Karr-Lewis
MENDELSSOHN, Songs Without Words |
This recording is undoubtedly the best example of Karr's special lyricism to date. His inaudible bowing changes transform these magnificent songs (originally for solo piano) into a seemingly vocal rendition that highlight the extraordinary beauty of Mendelssohn's melodic genius. Both Karr and Lewis feel a special affinity for this music.

| Gary Karr CD Music for Violoncello and Doublebass |
Compact Disc Recording Bassist: Gary Karr and Cellist: Barbara Thiem
.....Karr's unique arrangement of the Rossini Sonata gives the bass an absolutely equal voice with the cello. The microphones happened to be turned on during this classical jam session and the joy of the moment can now be shared with everyone who listens to this disc. It's obvious that the bass tries to outdo the cello. Barbara Thiem believes that the score was tied.
