unfortunately us classical guitarists arent known for our fashion sense because quite frankly its not what matters

[wizznerd]

no there's john williams the guitarist and the composer. 2 different people

[puccinislarondine]

2nd movement is too fast - it loses its majesty when played this way.

[LeeEisenstein]

one of the best concertos! such an inspiration, i have a version of the largo that is mostly influenced by john, you guys should check it out and comment.

@Phoenix0221 True, though I personally feel it adds to the overall experience, especially in such artistically beautiful surroundings.

@jjobie Yes we get a lot of football, but it is small in scope. Very little football from the continent is promoted (Italy, Spain etc). We did have a classical TV channel but it only ever has soprano solo singers. Most of our TV promotes the worst music. Real lowest common denominator stuff. Maybe these "artists" have the best agents??

[jjobie]

@Deesade86 You have a fair amount of sports programs too, though. At least that was my impression when I was over there. Granted it was almost all football (soccer here in the U.S.) but I remember cricket and racing as well.

Classical arts showcase channel sounds interesting. Shame I live in England where our TV is only really good for comedies (which we do well).
