Born: July 15, 1933
Location: London, England
Playing style: Classical
Instrument: Classical Guitar, Renaissance Lute.
One of the most important contributions he made to the world of the classical guitar was his development of a complete repertoire for performance. His transcriptions of works for guitar and lute span five centuries and he has particularly focused on lute works from the Elizabethan era and Spanish guitar works from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. He has also had many composers create works specifically for him.
Bach's Prelude In D
Bach's Fugue In Am
Villa Lobos Choros no.1
Not my kind of music but he's a great guitarist.

ReplyDeleteHe sounds really good! His songs are very clean sounding and each note is played very well. I also like how he uses the classical posture, and is the first guitarist I've seen using it.

He's such a smooth guitar player. And in his classical posture with him swaying to his music, it's just fabulous. I also love how he transitions between notes off by heart. His right hand is also really crazy, it looks like he isn't moving it at all. Thats really talented.
