The Classical thread

if you’re going to try,
go all the way.
there is no other feeling like
that.
you will be alone with the gods
and the nights will flame with
fire.

--Charles Bukowski

Such beautiful stuff. I grew up taking classical guitar lessons. My father bought me an Ibanez classical guitar in 1972. I still have it, although one day I opened the case and the area where the tuning knobs are cracked. The top part, the wood cracked in half. Someday I will get that fixed as I have not been able to play any classical in a long time. At 12 I could do a decent Malaguena.

But this thread reminds me of all the great music that we will never hear. We will all go to our graves with unlistened music because there is so much.
