  • New Guitar Appreciation

    From Daryl Stout@1:19/33 to All on Sun Jul 5 20:46:00 2020
    Earlier today (July 5) on the classical music radio station
    in Little Rock, KLRE (a service of the University Of Arkansas
    At Little Rock, and the University of Arkansas For Medical
    Sciences), on the show "Classical Guitar Alive", they did a
    piece that gave me a new appreciation for guitars.

    "The Odessa Duet" (if I remember right), had 2 guitar
    players, but they did "Rhapsody In Blue" by George Gershwin.
    I had heard it done with just piano, or with piano and full
    orchestra, but never with 2 guitars.

    Needless to say, I was very impressed!!

    Duo In G Opus 34, composed by Ferdinando Carulli and performed
    by Julian Bream and John Williams (not THAT John Williams)

    Then there's John Renbourn for something a little different.

    This was used as the theme to a BBC TV kids show of the 80's. Bonus points if you can name it :)
