Music available from Teachyourselfguitar.com


In addition to teaching, touring with several groups on two continents and developing this web site, I've released two CDs (and I'm working on the number three). I wrote and arranged each piece, played each instrument, and carried out the editing and engineering functions. I also wrote each insert, as well as oversaw the artwork (I took the Voyages and Return cover photo from the house where my father was born in southern Italy). My current two CDs are:

Season's Gift

A rich instrumental collection of the thirteen best known Christmas songs, recorded with classical, steel string acoustic and twelve string guitars, piano, and hammered dulcimer. It also includes an eight page insert sharing my views about the importance of the Christmas season. About 4,000 copies have been sold to date in five countries. Download the .MP3 files by clicking on any of the song titles below:

"Carol of the Bells" recorded with seven superbly layered guitars

"Joy To the World!", with three intertwining guitars

"Little Drummer Boy", recorded with twelve string guitars and a three layer acoustic guitar harmony (and of course, drums)

The traditional and beautifully melodic "In Excelsis Deo", recorded with guitar, piano, and hammered dulcimer

Voyages And Return

Eleven carefully crafted instrumental pieces inspired by my travels through six countries. Written for guitar, piano, hammered dulcimer, bass and percussion, this project took 250 studio hours to record.
