Acoustic Classic: Requiem for John Fahey by Gwenifer Raymond

Several years ago the multi-instrumentalist and composer Gwenifer Raymond was trying to learn John Fahey’s “Requiem for John Hurt” when she realized she was playing it incorrectly. Raymond then transformed this misinterpretation into a piece of her own, “Requiem for John Fahey,” which she recorded for her debut album, You Never Were Much of a Dancer (Tompkins Square).
