Jeffrey McFadden

Complete Classical Guitar Player

"Jeffrey McFadden - Best known for his
recordings of guitar music by composers
of the romantic era such as Fernando Sor
and Napoleon Coste..."

When I heard him play on a disc recently I was really pleasantly surprised. I'd not heard much about him before but knew straight away what a quality player he was.

I'm not just talking about technically, I'm talking about being a consummate artist and musician. As you can imagine, there is an enormous difference.

According to the bio on his webpage Jeffrey McFadden...

"has been acknowledged as one of the finest guitarists of his generation....

He has given World Premieres of works by numerous composers and has been a featured performer at several international music festivals...

His playing has received enthusiastic critical acclaim; the "Daily Telegraph" of London (UK) exclaimed "McFadden's ability to make the guitar sing is second to none"...

and "Classic CD" has described his playing as "major artistry".

Indeed, he is a lecturer in guitar at the University of Toronto, say no more!

Although Segovia, Williams, Bream and Romero et al deserve their place in the "musical firmament" we should also look to other exciting new talent to inspire and thrill us with magical playing of the highest order.

This, I believe McFadden delivers for us. As Segovia set down the foundations for all future guitarists there was always going to be succeeding generations that develop and expand on technique, sound quality and repertoire.

As mentioned above, McFadden was presented the opportunity to give..."World Premieres of works by numerous composers." You don't get that opportunity unless you're a world class player of exceptional ability!

Because it's a great way to super-boost your playing
and become the guitar player you've always wanted I
personally recommend these titles. Just click on

I for one will be buying more Jeffrey McFadden discs in the future (or whatever technology he records on in the future:)) and know I'll be getting much more than value for money - I'll be deriving pure pleasure!

When I mention that Jeffrey McFadden disc above please have a listen to Sor's Opus 29 No. 21 especially. McFadden plays this harmonic study beautifully. It is most sublime.

It's what my old guitar teacher used to describe as an... "ear-f&*@"

(Sorry about that, didn't mean to embarrass anyone).

Enjoy!
