Haha, yeah - I remember seeing that in one of the "Guitars Suck" videos (4, maybe?) a while back... blew most of the "shredders" out of the water. Definitely -worthy.

Thanks for digging that up... now I kinda feel like shit, haha.
Oh well, back to the woodshed, I guess...

He is a guy from the Spanish Delcamp forum. For those of you who don't know delcamp, it's a classical guitar site with tons of scores in their multilanguage forums: http://www.delcamp.net

Thanks Alex.

awesome

I am not sure if there are videos here. I've only checked the Barrios - La Catedral post, but you'll find original recording by the greats: Barrios, Segovia, Presti & Lagoya, Bream, Pujol and Gerwig.

Andres Segovia - The Song Of The Guitar {1976}



"Andres Segovia In Portrait" comes in two parts: Part 1 "Andres Segovia At Los Olivos" & Part 2 "The Song Of The Guitar"If anyone is interested I can supply the 1st part.
“The Song Of The Guitar” was made in 1976 when he was 84. Segovia gives us just brief sketches of his life and career while he devotes the rest of the time to playing his guitar beside the lovely reflecting pool of the Alhambra Palace. Recorded over several evenings after the departure of the Alhambra’s hordes of tourists, this 48 minute documentary features more full length
performances than previously, including works by Albeniz, Scarlatti, Torroba, Ponce and Rameau. He also plays his own transcription of another piece from Bach, the gavotte from the 6th Cello Suite. He may be 84 here, but his playing is still superlative. He would go on playing and performing onstage until just barely a month before his death at the age of 94.

Ana Vidovic is in a video on Youtube playing Cavatina, which kind of inspired me to learn it. Because of that, I will check this stuff out.

I own the Segovia DVD, it's good!
