    What are some good classical guitar songs, and I don't mean 60s rock and roll, but actual classical guitar?

    Question #18585. Asked by j. (Apr 26 02 8:14 AM)

    		You don't say whether you are a beginner or an accomplished player,but either way your first port of call should be a good music shop.
    The favourite song for music teachers is usually 'Romanza'. A very gentle,pretty piece used for new students. My husband and son played this endlessly when they started!!

    If you mean particular pieces,its all a matter of taste and any classical record shop would be glad to help.

    		'Cavatina' by John Williams is another favourite.

    		Few more j,
    The most famous guitar piece is probably 'Concierto de Aranjuez' by Rodrigo.He also wrote 'Fantasia for a Gentleman'.
    'Canon in D' by Pachebel also sounds wonderful on the guitar.
    I'm sure there are many more artists,but I would put John Williams top (as mentioned above).
