The British guitarist John W. Duarte was a well-known personality in the guitar world both at home and abroad: he composed, taught, directed summer schools, produced

This album offers a precious selection of pieces that reflect his versatility as a composer, arranger and guitarist. Each one of these gems embraces so many aspects of playing the classical guitar.
