Overview

If i were to sum up what I do in just a few words then i would say: I play the 'greatest hits' for classical guitar with a few pop and world-music hits sprinkled in for good measure! I am an experienced classical guitarist with an eclectic, wide-spanning oeuvre that ranges from familiar Bach and classical guitar favourites (Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, Spanish Romance and etc.) to equally well-known pop. favourites like: 'Pink Panther', 'James Bond Theme' and etc. I can also provide you with a unique mix of traditional music (arranged by Yours Truly) from South and Central America, Italy, Spain, Ireland, England and more - should you so desire!
