My newest featured guitarist is the great Andres Segovia. I saw him in the 80's and the guy was totally amazing. He was in his 90's then and was just flawless. Without Andres, there would be no classical guitar. He started as a young man, and began to do transcrib Bach to the nylon stringed guitar. He played Ramirez guitars all his life, of which I'm happy to say I at least own a student model.

The above examples are very short pieces, to give you an idea of the guy. There are some primo recordings out there if you're interested in great guitar music!!!!
