Amazing Classical Guitarist

I'm not a huge fan of classical music, but some pieces really appeal to me. I was listening to Recuerdos de la Alhambra by Francisco Tárrega performed by John Williams. Amazed that it could be performed by one guitar, so I went looking on Youtube for a video. I came across another guitarist, Gohar Vardanyan. Just mesmerized by how she can play this complex music so effortlessly. Been watching her other videos and even ordered her one available CD directly from her website. Anyway, here's the video that started me on all this:

I love Classical Guitar.  Unfortunately most albums that I come across tend to feature the same”Greatest Hits”, which includes the piece under discussion.  Lately I’ve been into albums featuring music by more modern composers, such as Leo Brouwer and Lennox Berkeley

I have listened to this piece many times.  But watching it being played so beautifully is so awesome.  No, not the generic awesome, but the Webster definition.  I have so much respect for musicians.  What a gift.  Thanks for posting.  I will pick up that CD as well.
