Great Segovia for Great price!

This Guitar Classic album is one of many nice,inexpensive classical collections put out by this company.
Although the original recording is a bit shabby, you can still obtain complete resolve when this album is in your cd player. If your not to familar with Segovia or even Bach for that matter, this album will be a great introduction to both composers through the lute suites played on guitar.
For the price, you cannot beat this buy! I have this one myself but had to get another for a friend. Aloha

Bad Edit: Be Warned

I bought this CD reissue of all-Bach recordings by John Williams and Andrés Segovia. Those above a certain age might recall that these were first issued on Everest LP, and I've been hankering for a CD reissue of this white-hot 1947 Segovia performance of the Bach Chaconne.

Be warned: This CD has a cut in the Chaconne. At the third beat of measure 225, the music suddenly jumps to measure 232. This, of course, spoils the entire performance. If such a sloppy edit would bother you as much as it did me, then avoid this CD.

(Note: These same performances have been issued on Empire Music Werks EVC 4500660, and this CD has the same unacknowledged edit. If you're looking for a good CD issue of Segovia's 1947 Chaconne, try "Segovia & His Contemporaries: Vol. 3" on DOREMI.)
