He was one of the greatest guitarist on Earth.
He is missed. For a long time I thought he was a student of Segovia but no, he was self taught! Which is frigging amazing in itself!

Here is one of many many pieces he has done:

Valses Poeticos, by Granados:



Notice the amazing control he has of dynamics in this piece.
And the dancers in this piece are amazing also!
Born in 1933, died age 87. RIP Julian.

Another Spanish piece, Cordoba by Albienez



He was also a master of Lute,

There’s already a death thread, no need to start a new thread for every famous person who dies, the forum would be overrun with them.

Julian Bream was a cut above and deserves notice. I assume you don't do guitar.

I don't have a choice about when I can come on here, 100% caretaker status right now, wife cannot walk due to triple bone break. It is obvious people here don't understand just how great Julian Bream was. I posted a tiny fraction of his works but I guess since there was no drummer or synth, he must not be that good.
