I bought the cd "Best of Liona Boyd" the cover has her with her guitar on horseback.

track #1 Medley: Plaisir d'Amour/Cavatina & track #15 Lejania are two of the most beautiful pieces of music played on the guitar, (There are tons more than these 2 mind you) But damn! just damn! check them out :)

@Yngsatchvai - Would you tell me how I can get this CD from Liona Boyd?

I live in l.a. - not familiar with best way to get it.

Also, howcan I find a 1987, maybe before that time, CD that has 'Forbidden Toy' and others.

Thank you very much.

@mariazevinho: You can get this and mostly all of her CDs directly from her website.

This is Tomaso Albinoni's "Adagio In G minor"... Not Samuel Barbers's Adagio for Strings....

Tomaso Albinoni is a Baroque composer...

Samuel Barber is 20th Century.... Just to let everyone know =p

This is the Albinoni Adagio

chilling, renewing, soothing, expansive, majestic, eye-tear inspiring, gentle, timeless; the chromatic mod at about 3 50 perks the ear to mind realization of temporal peace, bliss, tranquility: contentment and the like -- this Adagio brings us back to it with a renewed vigor: a new way to the light; and we trust in the muse
