Album Notes & Community Reviews

A dramatic departure from his typical rock-oriented Contemporary Christian Music, 'The Master & The Musician' is a sweeping, entirely instrumental acoustic masterpiece. Phil Keaggy weaves intricate, classical-style fingerpicking with deeply pastoral, atmospheric orchestration. The album has achieved legendary status as a profound, spiritually resonant benchmark of American acoustic guitar virtuosity.
