Franz Benda was employed at the court of King Frederick the Great of Prussia, and his exceptionally expressive violin playing led Charles Burney to describe him as ‘a truly great genius’. Benda’s cantabile composing style allowed space for elaborate ornamentation during performance which was the height of fashion in this period. This world première recording reveals Benda’s authentic and often spectacular written-out ‘improvisations’ in new editions of his sonatas, re-uniting them with a violin preserved unaltered since its creation in 1735.

Also appearing is Lynch Mob drummer Jimmy D'Anda on the track InchThe CrucibleInch. Regarding George's approach to instrumental albums, the virtuoso states, InchI always focus on creating guitar-driven music that delivers something outside the realm of what most people would expect, coming from a semi-redeemed 80's hair shredder. I want my instrumental records to be challenging, but not exhausting; personal, without being belligerently self-indulgent, include a fair amount of guitar histrionics, and pay tribute to the masters without making it sound like I'm competing to be the end-all summation of all guitar legacies that preceded me. I also wanted the underlying music to be more than vehicles for solos, I want the compositions to stand on their ownInch, explains Lynch. Fueled with driving guitar tracks like InchPsycho BetaInch and InchThe CrucibleInch, to the haunting outro of album closer InchContraflowInch, it is clear there is no slowing down George's creativity and Guitars at The End of the World is sure to be a fan favorite!
