    In my past life as a choreographer and pianist, I have played and choreographed this piece so many times that they run together in my head. However, this arrangement is profound and stands out for me. You produce a unique sound out of the guitar and I think Ravel would have loved it.

    What a unique and insightful arrangement! Mind-bending technique, executed without apparent effort and without upstaging the transparent beauty of Ravel's composition. I'm stunned.

    Beautiful arrangement and performance of a gorgeous piece! This is one of those pieces that I think sounds better on the guitar than on the instrument for which it was written.

    Upon reflection this is the most gorgeous piece of music
    Just like Claude debussey

    We used to play this with our classical guitar ensemble. Our teacher had made the arrangement himself. I am stunned to hear this on one guitar instead of four. This piece has so many layers and colours. Wonderful as always. Thank you!

    One of my all-time favourites, well played.
    Ravel said the princess was imaginary,
    but the music conveys more than enough sympathy for a real one.

    This is the most convincing arrangement of Ravel's pavane I've heard yet. It always seemed a piece that was just a little too large for the guitar, but you manage to make it work.
    Absolutely outstanding how you integrate extended techniques into a convincing musical framework as well.
    I can't wait until you release the sheet music, so I can give it a try!
