The NY Times and Guitar Player lead the first round of publications praising Al Di Meola's "Pursuit of Radical Rhapsody" (now available on Telarc Records). Di Meola says the album marks a fresh new era for his World Sinfonia band as the "compositions and interplay take on a more complex and interesting direction then anything I've done before."

"The maestro is back and he is killing! Al D throws down beautiful nylon-string parts and blazing electric lines on this tango-riffic collection. The playing is spectacular throughout but tones, particularly on 'Paramour's Lullaby' and 'Full Frontal' are so cool they almost steal the show. Bravo!" - Guitar Player

"Di Meola, a guitarist of dazzling technical prowess, has a new album, 'Pursuit of Radical Rhapsody,' whose title neatly sums up his mission as an artist. World Sinfonia is the acoustic global-fusion outfit featured on the album, which riffs on a range of stylish sources, from tango to gypsy swing." - NY Times

Al Di Meola will also be joined by the great pianist Gonzalo Rubalcaba!
