An avid chamber musician, she has collaborated with such artists as cellists Colin Carr and Gary Hoffman, flutists Jean Ferrandis and Marina Piccinini, clarinetist James Campbell, and the Penderecki Quartet.

The 10 years of success and innovation that Blackstar has enjoyed, however, put the lie to that idea. I remember visiting Blackstar’s factory a few years ago and being shown a prototype of an ID:Core amplifier and wondering how on earth they’d gotten such a huge, room-filling sound out of such a small box. When they then told me that the amp was going to sell for the price of an effects pedal, it gave me an acute attack of what I now recognise as the Blackstar ‘Wow’ effect .

    Sky Guitar" Instruments Hand-Made; Each Authenticated and Signed by Roth

    17th Street Guitars Page 1 of 3 17th STREET GUITARS INKS EXCLUSIVE DEAL WITH LEGENDARY VIRTUOSO GUITARIST ULI JON ROTH 50 Limited Edition "Sky Guitar" Instruments Hand-Made; Each Authenticated and Signed by Roth SANTA MONICA, CA - September 28, 2004 - 17th Street Guitars, an exciting new manufacturer of electric guitars and basses, announces its exclusive deal to build Uli Jon Roth’s illustrious “Sky Guitar.” Designed by the artist himself and perfected via several prototypes by Greek-born master luthier Andreas Demetriou in England, only 50 “Sky Guitar” instruments will be hand-made for distribution. The legendary guitarist awarded the license exclusively to 17th Street Guitars to craft his “Sky Guitar” because of the company’s commitment to building instruments to the highest possible standard. U.J. Roth will personally test each “Sky Guitar” before its release. Ever since its first prototype 21 years ago, the Sky Guitar was hailed as a revolutionary design in more ways than one. The Sky Guitar was the first of its kind, which incorporated a significant number of extra frets, and was probably the first 7- string electric guitar built out of necessity. The unique and aesthetically pleasing body shape makes it possible to play top notes which equal the register of a violin, something which was unthinkable for the conventional guitar beforehand. Roth makes frequent use of this extraordinary feature, which enables him to play complete classical violin concertos, such as Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, without having to transpose a single note. A further vital component in the equation is the integrated, built-in ‘Mega-Wing’ pick-up system.

    Mit Neuinterpretationen von Songs aus seiner Zeit bei den Scorpions tritt Uli Jon Roth im Hebst in Hannover im MusikZentrum auf. Scorpions-Songs neu interpretiert Uli Jon Roth bringt Solo-Album im MZ auf die Bühne 12. März 2015, Von: Redaktion, Foto(s): Promo-/Pressefreigabe Zwischen 1973 und 1978 war der Gitarrist Uli Jon Roth bei den hannoverschen Hardrock- Größen Scorpions aktiv. Auf einigen Alben aus dieser Ära befinden sich auch zahlreiche Kompositionen des weltweit einflussreichen Rock-und Fusion-Musikers. Mit „Scorpions Revisited“ hat er kürzlich ein Solo-Album mit Neuinterpretationen einiger Scorpions- Songs veröffentlicht. Im Oktober wird Roth damit in Hannover im MusikZentrum auftreten. Bei den Scorpions war der virtuose und innovative Musiker nicht nur als Gitarrist aktiv, zahlreiche Songs aus den Alben, die, die Band zwischen 1973 und 1978 herausbrachte, stammen aus seiner Feder oder wurden von ihm mitkomponiert. Dazu zählen neben „In Trance“ und „Virgin Killer“, bei denen er als Songwriter in besonders starkem Maße beteiligt war, auch „Fly To The Rainbow“ und „Taken By Force“. Vor rund zwei Jahren, als Uli Jon Roth in Erinnerungen an seine Zeit bei der weltweit erfolgreichen Hardrock-Band aus Hannover schwelgte, kam ihm die Idee, ein Solo-Album mit Neuinterpretationen von seinen Lieblingssongs aus seiner Zeit bei den Scorpions zu produzieren. Die Doppel-CD „Scorpions Revisited“ wurde live in Hannover aufgenommen. Wenn Uli Jon Roth am 9.Oktober in Hannover im MusikZentrum auftritt, stehen diese Neuinterpretationen von Scorpions-Songs im Mittelpunkt, es ist aber davon auszugehen, dass der als besonders einfallsreich, gefühlvoll und filigran agierende Gitarrist noch einige weitere 12.

    Concert for Streetdogs – the Very First!

    Concert for Streetdogs – the very first! In Lisbon (Portugal) there is going to take place the very first charity concert for streetdogs (February 9th, 2019). The entire revenues are donated to neglected, hurt and maltreated dogs. Famous musicians from Germany as well as Portugal support this project looking forward to an unforgettable “Rock 'n Flamenco” eve that is hardly topped with respect to its exclusiveness and intimacy. The concert is led by the exceptional musician on the guitar named Uli Jon Roth (Scorpions / Electric Sun et al). No doubt that Roth belongs to the most popular guitar players in the world being able to shape with his style the first lp's of the Scorpions and besides, influencing a variety of other grand musicians worldwide. He was on stage with many of the well-known rock- dinosaurs (e.g. Deep Purple, Smashing Pumpkins or Robby Krieger (The Doors)) and in 2018 he again has been on tour with 'G3-Tour' – for the third time – a changing format sending the three very best guitar players around the globe. “Either you have a very good heart or you are totally crazy. Doesn't matter, Here I am!” Uli Jon Roth spontaneously commented on our request to support and actively engage in our project. The guitar player himself is very much into animals and for the early times with Scorpions a confessing vegetarian. Visitors of the concert look forward to a musical journey through the different stages of Roth's creative phases. Still, beyond songs from his time with Scorpions and Electric Sun he plays unique Flamenco elements as well.
