RE: RIP Julian Bream

I was fortunate enough to hear Julian Bream live several times during the 1960s at Lisner Auditorium, George Washington University in Washington, D.C. He played lute in the first half of the recital and guitar during the second half.

I obtained his autograph on a copy of a Bach Prelude that he had played that evening. "What lovely script," he said of my copy. A treasured memory of the best guitarist I ever heard.

If you haven't seen them, the Master Classes he conducted, viewable on YouTube, are wonderful in revealing his musicianship--always in service of expression rather than technique.

RIP to a superb artist!
