Paquito – Vals (Francisco Tarrega) | Manuel Cabrera II

All the time

John Williams Theme From Schindlers List

A warm and inviting little piece, written by Christoph Gluck. Great sunny vibe to it, it's a nice.... 
(key of A major)

Andante ~ C. Gluck

A challenging little piece with a disjointed call & answer type relationship between the bass/harmony (working in tandem), and the melody line......it's a cool study by Carcassi  

Op. 60 Study No. 11 in D minor ~ Carcassi

A happy little tune with an active melody line. Written by: Weichenberger 

Gigue in G major ~ Weichenberger

A beautiful little piece by my favorite guitar composer, Mauro Giuliani! One of my fav's to play as well.....it's just a really nice piece all the way around!

This page is dedicated exclusively to Classical guitar and the study of great composers. I am completely self-taught, and I am a novice at this style, so don't hate (And yes, I am left-handed). I greatly appreciate you listening, commenting & sharing this music. 
*** I turn some of these Classical pieces into Rock songs! ***
