The Brilliance

"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.
