New Guitar Music

1949 di Giorgio guitar solos / as I've mentioned elsewhere,
I've had this instrument since 1967 or so and it continues to
challenge me / as I've mentioned previously, it had around
17 small cracks when I purchased it, and still has them, all
repaired of course, Brazilian rosewood back and sides, for
decades now endangered, but this was earlier, the top oddly
laminated, repaired for me by a crafts-person who also made
some of Segovia's instruments, and so forth, it's been used
on almost all my recordings, the guitar signed and numbered
by the maker, I almost wrote _makar_ which resonates also
with William Dunbar who wrote one of my favorite poems ever,
Lament for the Makaris, late 15th early 16th century, the
refrain 'Timor Mortis conturbat me.' still haunting, more-
so as I age, as the guitar does not, my long time companion,
always a friend, always prescient, I have seen none like
it, I never will again -
