an entirely new dimension to classical guitar performance. His repertoire
includes a large body of guitar music consisting of works written for him by
composers such as Robert Beaser, Luciano Berio and George Rochberg as well
as his own daring transcriptions of works of historical siginificance by Bach, D.
Scarlatti, Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Granados, Albeniz and others. He was
voted Best Classical Guitarist in the 26th Annual Guitar Player Magazine
Readers' Poll.
