The Making Of A Classical Guitar

Here is a very nice video of a classical guitar being handmade in Yamaha's Custom Shop in Japan. Here they make guitars in the $9,000 price range. Absolute top-o-the-line in classical guitars in my opinion. I wish I could do this!

"Lagrima" Done Right

I uploaded this tune to YouTube last week but decided the sound wasn't very good and that my playing was also a tad fast, so I redid the piece yesterday. This is the best I know how to perform this piece of music. It may not satisfy everybody. Everyone thinks their own way is the best way of playing music, but this is as close to perfect as I know how to do it, and I'm darn happy with it.

The Foundling Goes Home



The Foundling Goes Home is a romance for guitar and orchestra. I've not yet written the orchestrations for it, but I think it stands on its own as a solo piece quite well.

The title was inspired by the character, Shasta, in—The Horse And His Boy—a children's novel by CS Lewis and part of the Narnia collection.
