Alexander Turnquist
Alexander Turnquist is a Kingston, NY, based multi-instrumentalist and composer widely known for using his 12-string acoustic finger-style approach to create dramatic, emotionally engaging music and dreamlike harmonies out of everyday moments. Uncut magazine described his playing as “masterful. His right-hand technique is as orchestral as Nick Drake’s, sending rivulets of steel sadness out across the water, but applied to a minimalist logic with the weight of early Philip Glass or Steve Reich.”
