      @@dennistaylor5052 Please don't compare Tina S with a classical guitar virtuoso - especially someone like David Russell, who sits at the top echelon of this group. To do so shows a stunning lack of subject matter awareness.
      Yes, young Tina S is a phenomenal (primarily) electric guitarist (I've seen her videos too) and yes, her Moonlight Sonata cover is very impressive. It would be interesting to see if she's continued her development during the years she's been away. While you can't see the difference between her and David, it stands out like a mountain to anyone with even a basic formal education in music. It is fantastic that there are different types and flavours of music - the world would be a dull and uninventive place if this was not the case.

    I have had the pleasure of hearing David in live concerts from time to time ever since the early 1980's. He was an amazing revelation then and at this point David has reached the absolute pinnacle of musical mastery. The refined articulation in the Prelude and the fabulous ornamentation of the Loure (not to mention its overall conception) were to die for. Thank you for this and all of your other Omni Foundation / Bach recordings.

Me costó mucho, pero desde entonces, la guitarra resurgió para mí y la disfruto más que nunca. Y en todo el mundo ocurrió lo mismo. Su disco de música barroca de Bach, Handel y Scarlatti fue una REVOLUCIÓN. Esa técnica y musicalidad juntas, nunca se había visto antes.
