Adaptation and orchestration by Gilles Ouellet
The piece doesn't purport to be flamboyant, and in many respects, the little burst of complexity in the middle gives the whole piece a sort of Junior concerto' feel. Many guitarists who are still quite 'green' in their abilities will welcome this insight into a different side of guitar playing - enjoying sustain and volume that the guitar alone cannot summon up. If you have played solos from Mr Gagnon, you already know that the music is nicely constructed. Derek: Hasted (Classical Guitar Magazine)
