+ Boundless Brothers - T1720668784For 25 years, and with no sign of slowing, violinist Chris Murphy has made a living by writing, performing and recording original music. For Murphy, the path forward is charted by looking backwards to the troubadours and minstrels of ages past. Forget the exaggerated reports of the music industry's demise. It's only the record industry, a relative blip in the history of putting tones in sequence, that's suffering. Music, and the opportunity to make a life's work out of it, well, that's not going anywhere. "In another era," he says, "I would have played square dances and loved it. I would have been a court musician in Versailles in the 17th Century, or a violinist in a circus orchestra." For Chris Murphy, inspiration spans eras and aesthetics, but the fundamentals are the same. | |
