Brilliant find Bruce!! I owe you a beer.

At 11:16 Bream is playing a piece I've been searching for since I heard it played by Jan Akkerman on an album I had back in the late 70's but subsequently lost during one of many flat moves. The piece is Kemp's Jig.

It was Bream and Williams who inspired me to start taking classical guitar lessons....and I guess if hadn't been for them I wouldn't be building now.

Your on, next time I'm in Adelaide I'll come looking for you.

A wonderful video, thanks for posting Bruce!

Julian Bream is certainly one of my favourite classical guitarrists, always playing so inspired and inspiring, especially when playing on stage. Too bad he stopped performing some years ago, and I never could see him on a concert. At leas, now those live performance videos pop up!

A great player that's for sure.

Thank you for finding and posting this. My interest in classical has surfaced of late and I've been listening and watching a variety of different performers. Julian Bream is wonderful. Thanks for the link. The classical guitar is next on my build list.

Cheers,
Mark
