Pavel Steidl interprets Luigi Legnani - Caprice no. 29 - Virtuoso "Classical guitar"

Pavel Steidl interprets Luigi Legnani's Caprice 29 (Prestissimo), Op. 20

Played on a copy of a "19th century guitar by Georg Staufer".
Recorded May 1997.

This video was uploaded to show that there are guitarists who are just as relaxed and expressive when playing fast, as when playing a slower work. Also: speed alone - is never Steidl's focus.
Steidl always shapes the music to a charming effect. He's one of the few players who give 19th century guitar music the charm and friendly playfulness, which so many other guitarists either do not understand (nothing wrong with that: there are so many different musical styles), or do not have as their focus (their perverted focus usually being only speed).

Bravo Mr. Steidl !
