The Four Gentlemen of the guitar are: Keith Rowe: guitar, electronics; Oren Ambarchi: guitar, electronics; Christian Fennesz: guitar, computer; Toshimaru Nakamura: no input mixing board. "In mid-2004, they formed the Four Gentlemen of the Guitar (4g), and played a series of shows in Europe and Canada, three of which are contained on Cloud. The underlying concept of 4g is to unite four artists who each began their musical explorations as guitarists, keeping that mindset as a crucial underpinning of their work as they've each explored increasingly abstract territory, both with and without guitars. Cloud contains three performances (from Vand'ouevre, Paris and Victoriaville) from their seven city tour, totalling over two hours of music. The widely differing aesthetics of the four musicians meld fluidly, forming hovering, delicate masses of sound."
