"Tales of a Summer Past" is a voyage to a world of dreams, a world full of this particular musical colour that Nick shows to us in his players. After his last two disks ("Tears of the Moon" and "Eclipse") where Nick travels around different musical styles (New Age, Celtic music, etc), in his new job he submerges in the classical style but with a modern view.

The style of his new disk moves around the classical music but with new ideas, new sensations that makes his music full of textures. He transforms the sounds in new musical arguments (the "New Contemporary Instrumental Music").

"Tales Of a Summer Past" is a journey for the shades of a summer tale, like a walking in his colour palette, displaying to us a variety of musical textures. Nick is a composer that takes care about all the details, he points up the extreme concern of his plays to create emotive moments for the listeners.

"Tales Of a Summer Past" is music to enjoy in a sunny afternoon in summer, with a sea breeze in your face, watching the waves and feeling the touch of the sand in a desert beach.
