Segovia - Music for the Guitar


If you like classical guitar, Segovia - Music for the Guitar is the album for you. The mellow plucking of the classical guitar make this a great record to make art while listening to it. Andres Segovia is a true master of the guitar doing some marvelous five finger picking! The second track on Music for the Guitar entitled "pieces caracteristiques" is an amazing medley of 6 songs and good example of his depth as a classical guitarist. Another favorite would be "The Old Castle" which is the first song on side B. The Prelude has a harpsichord accompaniment that is very cohesive with Segovia's sound. I would highly suggest this album to any lover of classical music!
