Monte Ewert Honors a Legacy With “Take Me to the End ~ In Memory of Christopher Hnottavange”
Composer and multi-instrumentalist Monte Ewert unveils “Take Me to the End,” a deeply moving tribute to Christopher Hnottavange. Known for his visually evocative style, Ewert blends classical and jazz influences to create a soundscape that feels like a heartfelt reflection on life, memory, and farewell.
A San Francisco Bay Area native now rooted in the Southwest Desert, Ewert channels decades of experience—particularly his years performing with the Arizona Guitar Trio—into a piece that transcends genre. His signature use of voice, guitar, global instrumentation, and atmospheric textures brings emotional realism to every note.
Beyond his solo work, Ewert also contributes to projects such as Sweet Season, PDRC, and Sad Piñata, always chasing pure expression. “Take Me to the End” stands as one of his most intimate offerings—an ode, a remembrance, and a beautifully crafted moment of release.
