Matthew McAllister plays Weiss

Matthew McAllister was just in Victoria and gave some great advice and tips to my students. So grateful for his sharing and care for the music. Matthew has a real nice touch on the instrument and I love this performance of Baroque lutenist and composer Sylvius Leopold Weiss.

Matthew McAllister playing his own transcriptions of a prelude and allegro by Sylvius Leopold Weiss (1687 — 1750) at home in Glasgow Scotland.
