Leaving Footprints takes the listener on a musical journey into new sonic territories.  The music is a unique blend of traditional acoustic instruments, subtle intoxicating rhythms and environmental soundscapes which combine into a relaxing and spiritual sound.  The CD is based on the captivating sound of New Age style acoustic guitar melodies that have harmonic interplay with piano, strings, soprano saxophone, muted trumpet, voices and world percussion instruments. Subtly added to this lush musical foundation are the occasional natural sounds of birds, waves and rainforest wildlife.  The compositions were inspired by the natural harmonies that exists within nature's elements, and our own interpersonal connections, conveyed through sound and music. The Leaving Footprints collection is produced and written by the team of internationally acclaimed guitarist/composer Jim Savitt and guitarist/composer Rob Rolling.  It features the talents of an acclaimed team of musicians set in a state of the art digital audio production environment.  

The title Leaving Footprints was motivated by the environmental motto "take only pictures, leave only footprints". We believe strongly that living in harmony with nature is truly sacred. These compositions are musical footprints inspired by the beautiful sounds of nature that surround us.

The Leaving Footprints CD is very easy to like, a lot of the songs catch my ear.  As I work, I have had feedback from clients... "who's playing that guitar like that?, WOW!" - Pam Jeckell (massage therapist at Hudson Healing Arts)
