As the former/current guitarist for the metal band Testament, as well as the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Alex Skolnick could be considered a musical chameleon. Early in his career the virtuoso guitarist was inspired by the drive of one of his guitar heroes, Randy Rhoads and a Miles Davis concert to learn the art of jazz music.
After earning a degree in jazz music from New School University in New York, Skolnick released his first jazz album, “Goodbye to Romance: Standards for a New Generation.” This high-energy album is well recorded with super dynamics and it merges hard rock with jazz. For fans of rock music the songs look familiar; “Detroit Rock City,” “Goodbye to Romance,” “No One Like You” and “Pinball Wizard.” What you’ll hear however are new arrangements that take the song’s harmonies into the world of jazz.
