Re: What is the piece that changed your guitar journey?
On that record, among others, was Villa Lobos prelude #1 and Melancholy Galliard. Also, I believe Torroba's Sonatina was on that record as well.

Re: How important are the livestreams for you?
I love the live streams when I can watch. Often work gets in the way. But I retire in January and look forward to a much more amenable schedule! I do watch them after the fact though,…

I've been working on this piece lately. I'm just stunned by what a gorgeous arrangement this is. Spare and yet lush, so expressive. The challenge definitely is to play up to the beauty of the piece.

Re: Who's afraid of Bach? 👀

Come Heavy Sleep, instrumental version sheet music

Can anyone tell me where I can find the sheet music for this instrumental version? David Russell plays it on his renaissance album. I can only find it with the vocal. --Thanks!
