By now, the greater majority of you will know that if Stanley Yates puts his name to anything, it will be worth looking at or listening to, and this latest book is no exception…this is a wonderful book, with a considerable number of surprises. Yes you need to be a considerably good player to cope with the majority of this, but if you are, then there are some wonderful finds to be had here. AllClassicalGuitar.com
[Yates] philosophical approach to this task is thought provoking…[he] introduces us to languages both familiar and unfamiliar…but we soon find ourselves in delightful terra incognita…the rendition of [Albeniz’s] La Vega is astonishing. SOUNDBOARD
