Ya, made me want a classical guitar aswell so I went out bought one along with a teaching manual complete with cd rom..I don't think I will even get close to her level of playing but I'm having fun just the same.

I saw her open for Gordon Lightfoot at Lincoln Center & even he was so blown away by her that when he came on he called her back. She opened saying she was going to play the "Top ten hits...of the !400's" and everyone loved her...Simply Great!

Absolutely. These rock/pop/metal players get so much attention, but NONE of them can play at a level like this.

Liona, Ana Vidovic, John Williams are all true masters in their own right and style following in the footsteps of the great Master Segovia. It's hard to listen to Liona play this piece with a dry eye. It's just pure melodious fire. Simply amazing. Thanks for posting this.

Old style works for a good reason.

old style guitar playing is what made the classical guitar appealing to masses.

check out Giulio Tampalini on YT you can see how that style of playing works.

Nice guitar - big of a low res dog though - rub the vaseline off the lens and shoot her in daylight I think you would get a shock!
