My Muse speaks.....-

My Muse as my "guardian" is my inner most need  to connect my emotions, passions and thoughts to  my abilities to comprehend the music I play and compose. My muse has at times  driven me with a sensuality and an intellectual prowess that leaves the material world in a 'passe' state.

Francisco de Asís Tárrega y Eixea (21 November 1852 – 15 December 1909) was a Spanish composer and classical guitarist of the late Romantic period.[1] He is known for such pieces as Capricho ÁrabeRecuerdos de la Alhambra and Gran Vals, the latter of which became the Nokia tune.

The following images are links to pieces I am working on. They are designed for vertical/mobile presentations in a 9:16 resolution. When a piece is complete, it will be filled in with its cover and information. It will link to its own page for presentation streamed via Vimeo directly on its own web page. I might even redo some now that i have a better audio recording  setup as well as a new guitar.
