Default The Sitka Somogyi plays Julia Florida

You are no doubt thinking, "That just wont work on steel strings".
Well, this guitar just understands what to do with these lyrical works. It was easy. Like riding a carbon-fiber bicycle in the mountains.
The next, and final video of the project will be an even more unlikely piece to work on a sitka steel string, Manuel Ponce, and it sounds heavenly. I'm doing the post now and am so digging it.
But here is the Barrios piece, as promised above.
Thanks for listening.

Absolutely transcendent, Michael! I am not familiar with the piece, but I am assuming that it is generally played on a nylon stringed or classical instrument... sounded heavenly on the Somogyi!

... I did not realize that you had become a member of this Forum; you are a quite welcome addition, I assure you!

Thank you for posting this piece!
