It's been ages since I posted here and I'm pleased to be back. Having spent a whole year trying to secure the rights to arrange and publish my take on various traditional Greek songs, I'm pleased to say I got there. I'm posting here perhaps the most well recognised tune for you to enjoy Zorba's Dance. The classical guitar repertoire has become so static that I felt new material was needed and in a completely fresh direction. I chose Greek music as I have roots in this and hope I can do it justice. It is rich in both harmony and rhythm and can be quite a challenge.
If this sparks interest you then here is a video on the complete works
Loads more information on this publication on the Spirit of the Greeks - Greek music for classical guitar website

Beautifully judged and controlled playing there Mark, and very enjoyable too! I'm sure the road to get to the finished project was long and full of tricky hurdles - many congratulations on hitting the winning tape. Kudos on the book too, and cool that you have the praise / support from Carlos Bonnell. Would that I were good enough on classical guitar, or indeed any guitar, to be able to explore the book - hope it does well for you. Mark

I'm a bit late to the game here as I lost my password and could not recover it for a while. But thankfully I have in time to announce my latest adventure in a new post
