They probably meant she didn't record studio CDs. Her husband, Oleg Kagan, was (RIP) an equally fine violinist. His catalog is certainly worth exploring. Many are with Gutman. If you do a YouTube search for her, you'll find many videos....

I heard her play Schnittke's First Cello Concerto with the SF Symphony two years ago. It was one of the most devastating and searing (in a good way!) live performances I have ever heard! She put's 120% into her performances. Gutman has her own series...

Paul,  Thanks. My guitar is made by Peter Oberg in San Diego. I had a little Photoshop fun to give it a surreal edge!Oh yes, today's super-virtuosi sail through pieces that Segovia could not imagine! A few manage to couple expression with jaw-dr...

Rgs,Rodrigo has written some nice multi-guitar concerti, especially Concierto de Madrigal for two guitars. A rare LP by the Abreu Brothers is worth searching for--it contains a mind-blowing concerto by Guido Santorsola and a nice, but less awe-inspir...

Well, I think there are a lot of "greats" out there, but so many are also rather robotic--they play to perfection, but there is precious little passion. It's almost like listening to a MIDI file! Sorry, but Yepes is one of my least favorite player...

I've played classical guitar for nearly 30 years now, so obviously I'm a huge fan (or quite the masochist!). Paul Galbraith recently played in La Jolla--did you attend his concert? Today, the world is filled with so many amazing guitarists that are p...
