  1. That was great! I have acquaintances who say they like classical guitar because it is so ‘relaxing’. Like it is some kind of background music. This rips through all of that. Very intense, and yes, mesmerizing. That ‘relaxing’ music can be quite good mind you. But sometimes you need a little dissonance and challenge; good for the soul.
    Thanks for putting this to our attention.
