Julian Bream can play guitar up there with Segovia, Williams, Parkening and anyone else I've ever heard. Segovia was a pioneer and kept the guitar alive. But come on! This is fantastic playing. The thing I like about Bream is he plays differently each time. He will change his approach now and then. This was an introduction to the work "Tiento" for me and it was a great experience. I would also recommend Williams "Seville Concert" and "Parkening Celebrates Segovia" which has the hands down best recording of Bach's Chaconne ever recorded on solo gutiar.

Not Segovia, perhaps not Williams but very, very good. Recommended.
