Ralph Towner was born in Chehalis, Washington, in 1940. He attended the University of Oregon and co-founded a group called Oregon in 1970.
Anthem is the title track from his 2001 solo album. An instrumental played on classical guitar, it is a quiet, contemplative piece, with lots of space between notes, allowing the haunting reverb to permeate the room. Complex and absorbing, it is an impressive combination of jazz and classical influences.
