Hello Ricardo, Greetings to you! I love your page and your musicianship. You have always been my favorite classical classic guitarist. I met you at Ar Arts center long ago right after your "tales..." cd came out. You may remember me, I asked about the two pieces you opened with, which were Kleynjans Op.60. the two Barcarolles...which cd are these on may I ask or did you record them also?

Wonderful! One question though - I saw you back in the early 80's and you played these Fantasia's by Da Milano. Do you remember the name or numbers of the set that you played? I'd love to learn them. Thanks!
