My Music Page
This page is mainly a way for me to keep track of my favorite artists. Most of them are guitarist because that's my favorite instrument. I own and "operate" three guitars: 1974 Spanish Classical Alhambra, 197? Flamenco Alhambra, 1994 GTE Steel String Martin (my current favorite). My musical interests range any where from Flamenco to Classical To Finger Style to Jazz. Simply put: if it's good music, I like it.
At one point in my life I was really dedicated to playing music. I actually ended up winning $50 at a classical guitar competition in college (USL-Lamson Classical Guitar Competition). During the second part of my junior year, I started running out of time to practice. Engineering classes ate up most of my time. Although, back then, I really didn't know HOW TO practice (and I still don't). They say it takes 30 years to learn. At USL I studied guitar under Gerd Wuestemann.
I also have a chromatic harmonica that I play every now and then.
In February of 2004 I bough a Yamaha Clarinova C130 and started taking piano lessons. Since then I haven't played a lot of guitar.
