Wow. Was on YouTube listening to classical guitar interpretations of West Side Story tunes.... Very, very well done. I wish I could my tone to sound like that!

Thanks a lot, there is another fine classical guitar arrangement by Jorge Morel including the songs "I feel pretty", "Maria"and "America". You can find it here on YouTube played by Stephen Yates. Enjoy. :-)

It's not my arrangement, the arranger is Giovanni De Chiaro.

Thanks, I'll check your songs.

Qué barbaridad: llega uno de vacaciones y se encuentra ésto.

Lo siento pero ya no me quedan adjetivos para describir tus piezas.

Increíble...

Gracias, Berni. Ya me preguntaba dónde te habías metido.

Seguiremos intentando sorprender con las piezas.

Yes, he was my guitar studies teacher... I've never met a kinder and more impressive person. It's truly a pleasure to hear you perform some of his arrangements.

You studied with him? Wow, he must be an excellent teacher.

This was my favorite song in Governor's School... Giovanni is the greatest...
