GNOMUSY (David Caballero) is a solo amateur composer using synthesisers and computer music software to produce new age / contemporary with a touch of fantasy and a reminiscence to Celtic and Andinian music.
Why this name?
GNOMUSY is a compound word out of Gnome and Music. Surprisingly it has a meaning in Greek, as my good friend Christos Karavitis told me recently: gnome is “opinion, way of thinking” (the verb gnomi means “to know”) and “muses” is in regard to the daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, out of whose Euterpe presided over the liberal art of music. Hence, Gnomusy could mean “the way of thinking about music”. Weird, indeed, as I was just looking for a strange nick to facilitate search of links over Internet using browsers like Google! The subtitle 94-04 indicates the period 1994 to 2004 in which I composed these tracks.
