Guitarist educator and historian Stefan Grossman was a student of acoustic blues and gospel singer/guitarist Rev. Gary Davis. Beginning when he was 15 Stefan studied with Davis on weekends spending eight to ten hours at his house in Harlem absorbing all he could. While studying with Rev. Davis he met and studied with other country blues guitarists: Mississippi John Hurt Son House Skip James Mance Lipscomb and Fred McDowell.In the early 1960s Stefan formed the Even Dozen Jug Band (which also included such future luminaries as John Sebastian Steve Katz Maria Muldaur and David Grisman). In 1966 he worked with the alternate rock band the Fugs beforemoving to Great Britain in 1967. In 1969 he co-founded Kicking Mule Records with Ed Denson a label that showcased acoustic fingerstyle guitar. Many of these albums that Stefan produced during this period are finally being re-released on CD on his own label.From 1967 to 1987 Stefan Grossman lived in Great Britain and Italy and toured worldwide. He performed and recorded with John Renbourn for 15 years and they produced four albums together.Stefan's solo discography goes all the way back to 1966 when he recorded How to Play Blues Guitar with Rory Block (now released as Country Blues Guitar SGGW103).

He continues to do concerts and workshops worldwide and remains one of the world's foremost authorities on acoustic blues guitar.

Internationally renowned classical guitarist David Leisner plays a live concert program with some pieces that are well-known and others that may be new to guitarists. One of the discoveries is the Sonata in b minor byWenzeslaus Matiegka (1773-1830) an unduly neglected composer that Leisner calls 'the Beethoven of the Guitar'. It’s a great addition to the Guitar repertoire. Another discovery is Leisner’s own Nel Mezzo: Sonata whichSoundboard magazine called 'an original and profoundly personal work...powerful angry and moving music'. Now played quite a bit the music of Johann Kaspar Mertz (1806-1856) was virtually unknown when Leisner recordedand published some of his music almost 30 years ago. Here two of Mertz’s pieces display the passionate Romanticism of this music. The classics include the sublime Prelude Fugue and Allegro by J. S. Bach two delightful Rags byScott Joplin in Leisner’s arrangements and a dazzling encore of Etude No. 12 by Villa-Lobos.Leisner introduces each piece informally and is interviewed during intermission by Andrew Dickenson. Theinterview covers a number of topics in depth including some of Leisner’s secrets about easing physical tensions while playing the Guitar and his thoughts about the music he’s playing and about composition.

The Life And Music Of The Legendary Jazz Guitarist-In guitar history no single figure stands as tall as jazzman Charlie Christian. He helped not only introduce the electric guitar to the world but also popularized single string solos moving the instrument from background rhythm to the forefront of popular music. And like so many important jazz players he made enormous contributions in the span of an all-too-short life. Born in 1916 in Texas Christian moved to Oklahoma City at an early age where he became immersed in the jazz culture of the Sooner State. Influenced by family jazz musicians in and out of Oklahoma and area western swing players Christian emerged with his own unique style of playing. By 1939 hejoined the Benny Goodman Sextet. During the next few years he received national acclaim. At clubs like Minton’s in New York he even helped craft the early stages of Bebop. And yet by 1942 he succumbed to tuberculosis and passed into history. This DVD covers all aspects of Charlie’s life and music featuring interviews with family friends fellow Oklahoma jazz musicians and music luminaries like Claude ‘Fiddler’ Williams Jerry Jerome and Les Paul. Also included are a large array of musical performances by such guitarists as Herb Ellis Eldon Shamblin Zeke Campbell and others.

With Online Audio-Written during the 1970s the etudes featured in The Art Of Two-Line Improvisation were composed as a result of Jimmy Wyble's explorations into the musical worlds of counterpoint harmony and chordmelody improvisation for the jazz Guitar.The right and left hand fingerings presented in this book were developed as techniques needed to improvise jazz in two lines. Wyble uses very standard jazzGuitar chord shapes in these etudes; however these shapes move through the harmony in lines rather than block chord structures. This broken chord technique creates a unique contrapuntal sound that separates Wyble fromthe rest of the fingerstyle jazz Guitar world.It is hoped that jazz and classical guitarists playing and working through these etudes will see many familiar chord shapes moving in new ways and creating newsounds. These new harmonic sounds combined with beautiful melodies will inspire any quitarist to new levels of musical creativity. The Art Of Two-Line Improvisation is written in notation and tablature.

Celtic acoustic guitar and cittern wizard Robin Bullock takes the vibrating string to astonishing places with four of his own compositions, artful arrangements of another five traditional Celtic tunes, and tunes by Norman Blake and Dougie MacLean. From high-octane performances on Spider - Maho Snaps - Matelot Jig - and Old Brown Case to the extraordinarily moving and trancelike tune Between Earth and Sky(original title piece of his CD), the slow Irish air For Ireland I'd Not Tell Her Name - and Tiger Baby's Lullaby - Robin displays the fingerpicking and flatpicking styles that, combined with his composing and multi-instrumental skills, have earned his reputation with such renown Celtic and world-music groups as Helicon, Billboard's 'world music' TOP 10 artist John Whelan's new Celtic band, and Riverdance guest artists Footworks Percussive Dance Ensemble. An extraordinary composer, Robin also varies tunings using standard tuning on only two pieces - he fingerpicks seven of the tunes, and uses flatpick technique on Old Brown Case and the three cittern (Irish bazouki) pieces: his original The Iraqi Road to Dublin and Irish traditional tunes Maho Snaps and The Dawn/Miss Monahan. Completing the 11 pieces on this video are: Dougie MacLean's Farewell to Craigie Duh, Turlough O'Carolan's Sir Charles Coote - Captain Higgins - and Rigler's March - Rex's Ramble - another one of his own.
