  Dominic Miller: Shapes - Munich
When one hears that Dominic Miller's day job is as Sting's guitarist, one may be excused for thinking that he is merely a pop-musician trying his hand at being a classical crossover after having "discovered" that some of "these classical dudes" wrote pretty good music.
Miller is the one who has rebelled, absconded from his Guildhall schooling and got away for a while, travelling the world with various famous pop bands.
This was such a predominant thought for Miller, it seems, that he charmingly put a thank you to "the English countryside in spring" on his list of credits in the CD booklet.

 Dominic Miller in Munich
Dominic Miller was in Munich last month to introduce his new classical album, Shapes, to the Munich audience.
Miller has been with Sting since 1991 but he is a classical musician at heart.
Miller, in fact, is big on chords and his "Shapes" album, on Decca, shot to top of the UK classical charts like a rocket.

Miller evokes many emotions through his mastered art of guitar playing and I think many can appreciate the tone and mood his music sets.
But Dominic Miller's sublime guitar work is the presence that binds all these pieces into a fantastic journey that can be listened to now, and for all time.

For nearly 14 years guitar virtuoso, Dominic Miller has been the musical right hand man to Sting, performing at over 1,000 concerts and on 7 albums, as well as co-writing Shape of My Heart.
Argentinian born Dominic is a self confessed J.S. Bach ‘obsessive’ after Sting gave him a book of Bach partitas and sonatas as a gift, and Shapes includes music from Mass in B Minor, Mi Fe (Ciaconna) with fellow Argentinian Alejandro Lerner and Prelude No 3 for Clavier with Chris Botti’s trademark trumpet.
As Dominic observes: "There are so many great classical tunes and I realised that no guitarist had tried to perform a lot of them before.

The album sees Miller cover popular classical works in his more contempory musical style, while being joined by Placido Domingo, Sting, and Moya Brennen on vocals.
This album is a classical music album and not a classical guitar one, but none the less it is a very enjoyable one and one cannot fault Millers ability to play the guitar although not in the true classical guitar sense.
I'm sure that the classics which melodies have been arranged by Dominic would enjoy this and consider as really qualitative sounding.
