Acoustic Bass Guitarist Brian Wroten Releases Tasman…

Brian Shares…

Tasman was written & recorded over a 2-year period while I was completing my Master’s Degree in Music Composition at the University of Tasmania from 2011-2013.  It was written by a student at the Conservatory at the time (me), it was recorded using the Conservatory gear and facilities; features ensembles composed of entirely student musicians, and was mixed and mastered by a student (Caleb Alan Miller).

After completing the recording of the album I unfortunately had to leave Tasmania and return to the US or face deportation by the Australian Dept. of Immigration & Citizenship because I was unable/ineligible to apply for another visa to extend my stay because of Immigration law at the time.  The album for that reason now serves as sort of a “requiem” for my whole Tasmanian experience.
