Ray Reussner, classical guitarist, and Tandy C. Reussner: 1996 Wolff 3-65 organ perform the first movement "Allegro non tanto" from Luigi Boccherini's Concerto in E major in the grand acoustics of Bales Organ Recital Hall, University of Kansas, Lawrence. The piece was originally written as Boccherini's Concerto for Cello & Orchestra No.6 in D, G479 - It was arranged as Concerto in E for Guitar and Orchestra by Gaspar Cassado (1896/1966) - It was recorded as such by Andrés Segovia.
Ray studied with Segovia, off and on, for 20 years, as well as with John Williams at the Royal Conservatory. He is considered to be one of the very few "true" remaining links to Maestro Andres Segovia.
"The dedication to his profession, his talent and his willingness to work have made him into one of the most distinguished young guitarists of today, deserving of the success that awaits him and that I predict for him ... He shows a refined sensitivity and gift for interpretation, a perfect knowledge of the guitar technique." Andres Segovia

Well, actually the Facebook version at the Heartside Music group page is actually much, much better. True stereo and better resolution. ;-) Youtube tends buries so much of the everything, the room etc. with their forcing everything to mono. The organ pipes are huge and the sound is incredible on this monster, not to mention, the guitar that Ray is playing is one of his own making.
