3? how about 2...
Pavel Steidel - the most captivating guitarist I have seen in years. Head and shoulders above anyone in the game - no one can compare to his 19th century repertoire - NO ONE.
Aniello Disiderio - big, full sound in the segovia mould. Shaking his hand made mine feel like a midget (Im 6ft tall) Enigmatic and full of flair and virtuosity.
No one else comes to mind - have taken part in master classes with Barrueco, Russel but have not been touched by such playing as the two mentioned. Not many people have heard of these players so I encourage anyone out there to have listen. You won't be disappointed!
