Steve Gunn & David Moore

Steve Gunn & David Moore‘s latest album is a project shrouded in an aura of reciprocity. “Let the Moon be a Planet” was born of an invitation to connect between two New York musicians who admired each other’s work but had never met. Guitarist and songwriter Steve Gunn, whose solo, duo and ensemble recordings represent milestones of contemporary guitar-driven material, and pianist and composer David Moore, acclaimed for his minimalist ensemble music as leader of the group Bing & Ruth.

This project is a volume of improvised exchanges between classical guitar and piano, and a meeting place where two artists get to know each other through instrumental dialogue. And with no expectations to distract them from the joy and possibility of an open field of collaboration.

This album represents the first volume of “Reflections”, a new series of contemporary collaborations orchestrated by the RVNG Intl label. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to St. John’s Bread and Life, whose mission is to respect the dignity and rights of all people by ensuring access to healthy, nutritious food and comprehensive human services that enable self-sufficiency and stability.
