IMAGINE – J. Lennon
Imagine – played the melody with the bass. I did this arrangement for my students to enrich and support the melody a bit, making it sound fuller. This time it took me a bit longer to arrange a song, because this one is rhythmically complicated, and I wasn’t sure in which key to put it.…

New Classical Guitar Music concert program
Already for a few days I was arranging and practicing J.S. Bach cello suite No.1, couple of selected his lute works. Had a look at few S.L. Weiss pieces, A. Vivaldi and G.F. Handel. Also several other loved “classics”, like W.A. Mozart and P.I. Tchaikovsky. As soon as pieces will flow under fingers I will…
