John Williams – Spanish Guitar Music Tour



Great to see John Williams Spanish Guitar wizard and legend on tour in the UK in Summer 2013.  John Williams is due to play Sandwich on the 1st May, Wallingford on the 2nd May and Sevenoaks Summer Festival on 4th July. Lincoln Cathedral on the 23rd July has been rescheduled from the 16th.

John Williams a great technician of the Spanish Classical Guitar is known for playing and recording all the Spanish guitar repertoire, the great classical composers like Bach and Scarlatti as well as experimenting in modern guitar music as well as mixing it up with some Rock. John Williams is probably most well known for his great performance of Cavatina used in the feature film The Deer Hunter composed and arranged by Stanley Myers.

Recently I noticed his wonderful guitar style used as background music accompanied by orchestra. This was on a re-run of the British TV series Parsley Sage. The music is beautifully written and arranged by TV composer Christopher Gunning.
