Kindle books on classical guitarists
Is anyone aware of any books, preferably Kindle books, of biographies of any of the great Classical guitarists? I'm interested in Bream, Segovia - there's one about a period of his life in South America, but I think only covers a short time.
I'd love to find something more comprehensive about some of the really good players especially those of the 20th century. Thanks, Bob |

I've seen ebook bios of John Williams and Jorge Morel.

I don't know if it is on the Kindle or not, but I read Grace like a river by Christopher parkening and it was the most entertaining book I have read in years

As with the others, I'm not sure about Kindle publications, but if paper is OK try "Julian Bream. A life on the road" by Tony Palmer and "Strings Attatched" a biography of John Williams by William Starling. This latter book spends a lot of time (possibly most) looking at his family rather than the maestro himself.
They should keep you going for a day or two. |

I can recommend you to read a great book about Segovia:

It's a bit expensive, but you may find it in a public library. I studied in Trinity College in London, and they have it in their library...

Thanks for all the answers, gang. I'm not opposed to reading them in paper format at all, so either Kindle or paper's fine.
They all look interesting, so I'll just start with one and keep on until I'm wore out. Much appreciated, Bob |
