GUITAR PERFORMANCE
I play all styles of guitar and presently do solo gigs on nylon-stringed guitar, namely Spanish, Classical, Latin American, American Songbook and Popular tunes, providing an intimate and pleasantly warm, spring-like atmosphere.
 
I started my guitar playing on Classical guitar and achieved a Performer's Diploma. Later, I progressed through to Rock via Bossa Nova, Jazz in the Django Reinhardt style and also Flamenco - studying with Paco Pena in France. I was chosen by him as one of the players in the `Finale` student concert at the`Rencontres International de la Guitare`.
