One of the best brazilian CGs at the moment.
Together with Fabio Zannon, the most beautiful sound from the guitar I've heard on a live performance. And what a magnificent interpretation!!!
Look for more of his videos at Youtube...

cheers

Hello Luis,

Thank you for the link and thank you for introducing me to a brilliant performer. One of the brilliant benefits of a forum like this is that we can become aware of players from around the world.

Do you know if CDs of Paulo Martelli or Fabio Zannon are on sale?

Best wishes, V

Nice link I love the first movement thankyou

I have two CDs from Martelli:
- On GRI Music, includes a Diabelli Sonata, Harris Variation on Handel theme, Tedesco Homagio a Boccherini
- On Woodhouse Records, CD called "Roots", includes Barrios, Bellinati, Gismonti and others.

Fabio Zannon has an incredible huge repertoire and he is my favourite CG at the moment. Unfortunately he doesn't record too much. His recordings:
- EGTA (brazilian label) - Latin American Sonatas. out of catalogue. You can download his recording of Ronaldo Miranda's Apassionata that is on this CD at Editions Orphee:

- NAXOS - Guitar Recital. That's easy to find...
- MusicMasters - Villa-Lobos Complete Solo Guitar Works - best recording on VL, out of catalogue
- Musical Heritage - Scarlatti Sonatas- amazing recording, but you can buy only if you are part of "Musical Heritage Club".
- Tangos & Choros - chamber music for flute and guitar.
- Mel Bay - Artist Series - Classical Guitar Solos Video (VHS)
