The Brilliance
There are multiple artists named The Brilliance:
1) The Brilliance is a contemporary classical music duo composed of David Gungor and John Arndt, originating from Tulsa Oklahoma.
The journey started in early 2009 when David became inspired to create a unique and different musical experience outside of the typical "christian music" soundscape.
"I wanted to make a Christian record that was constructed in a fresh way. I had an idea to base a record around a string quartet and piano, and then build around that."
David teamed up with longtime friend and fellow musician John Arndt and began the creative process.
"I called John Arndt, and asked if he could produce the record, and do the string arrangements. He challenged me and brought out the best of the music. "
In early October The Brilliance released their first single to the iTunes store.
2) "The Brilliance is an alternative/garage/punk/rock band that was originally formed in 2004. Over the years we played many a show, recorded many a song, and got wasted one too many a time!. During first three years as a band, we recorded three e.p.'s that included 22 songs in total. However, only one of the three was ever really pressed and sold at our shows. Because of this, we are going to release a collection of the best songs from those e.p.'s as well as three new ones that were tracked and recorded over the past 4 months. "Recollection" will be the first and hopefully not last full length album that we will have officially released. I (Paul Brilliance) have been personally making music since 1997 and this has been a long time in coming. The dichotomy of both the old and new songs really flows together well. Recording and musical progression can be heard through each phase of the bands existence, which for me personally was a humbling realization. However, I am proud of everything we have done. I wrestled with the idea of re-recording many of the old songs but decided not to because the purity in the originals is something not found in recordings today. People are so used to a polished perfect sounding product, that they don't realize they are not getting an honest recording. If anything, the Brilliance has always been nothing but DIY and honest." -from https://www.facebook.com/thebrilliancerocks/info Read more on Last.fm.
