    Videos like this are unique and of great value to me as a guitarist. I admire the work of the late, great Alan Holdsworth and was pleasantly surprised by your reference. I enjoyed your performance and explanation of this Lobos prelude and, if L had my way, you would do all the etudes and preludes similarly. Thanks for what you have done with Sagreras and others.

    I had a book of all 5 Editions Max Eschig on pretty much permanent loan from Sunderland Public Libraries in the early 90s LMAO. But these DPJ 'my takes' are like walking into an orchard of ripened fruit! Absolute generosity. Thank you!

    Very smooth and legato version of this difficult piece to play correctly. Enjoyed it very much. By the way, ever noticed at the 1:13 mark, a Ord generates at your right hand and moves up slowly? Very interesting! Then again maybe is just dust. But I like to think someone on the other side is peeking in to enjoy this wonderful piece, maybe even Villa Lobos himself.

    I love this performance. The beautiful legato you achieve in the cello-like melody in the central section is expertly done. I also appreciate the rolled and non-rolled chords, clearly the product of conscious decion and not unconscious reflex. Bravo. Have you recorded the others?

      There's an album I did years ago called Recital. You'll find it on Spotify and it includes the 5 preludes. I think I've improved since the though! At least, I hope so!

Some other pieces worthy to add into the mix attention might be the Scarlatti sonatas K322/L483 and L352 🙂 I suspect you get loads of requests

    Thank you very much. This is pure gold for me. Do a series for ToneBase and get paid for your work. I never heard an third string like that. Allan Holdsworth did some acoustic work with a group called Gong that inspired me tremendously some forty years ago.
