I noticed in the Wikipedia article on Julian Bream that the BBC did a video of him in 1976 called A Life in the Country. Do you know anything about that, are copies available online, or for sale, etc?

What she meant was the piece for vocal ensemble and guitar by Tedesco, not the concerto.

Comment on Ana Vidovic : La Catedral - Agustin Barrios Mangoré by Rich Larow

As a classical guitar player I studied many composers but ended up sticking to one composer in general, Fernando Sor. In terms of counterpoint and finger style, the tremolo picking of his style is evident here, and nuances of volume velocity and progression of chords within the specific key of the song. At the height of the classical guitar era, composers tried to outdo each other to compete with the violinists such as Paganini and composers like Mozart, thus alternating bass-lines came into play to create the sound of 2 guitars in one, to captivate people watching 1 artist on a stage for a performance. I can tell that she had very diligently studied many different composers, but her hand placement is almost exactly the positions described in the music of Fernando Sor. Also the progression of the chords within the scale warrant the style and hand placement noticed in her playing, with very little movement of the right hand-serious discipline here.( without the pinkey constantly resting on the edge of the sound hole, a trademark Spanish style stemming from Flamenco) Her left hand has the style of a violinist, and is very noticeable in the speed and accuracy of her progressions. A dead giveaway is her pinky on her left hand, and its position, and effortless transition between chords, and almost flawless tempo. She is the modern Fernando Sor…..
