Sweet Tones of the Classical Guitar 1 The Renaissance & The Baroque.

My latest recording Sweet Tones of the Classical Guitar was released on the 1st of July 2010. The album consists of a collection of popular music from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, the pieces played are 'old favourites' which are forever enjoyed by both the guitarist and the public alike. This recording is the first of a set of three recordings of popular music played on the classical guitar beginning with the 16th Century and ending with the 20th Century. The second and the third CDs in this set will be available in June 2012.
