The workmanship, his choices, the clean lines, and the brilliant resonance of this instrument is truly magnificent.

Sound Files	Prelude #10 - A Father Remembers - this was recorded on October 7, 2008. Sound is straight thru with no noise reduction, no filters, nothing, except reverb is added to relieve any dryness. For those interested in the piece, I wrote this in dedication to my father. It is about a nightmare I had where I lost my children. Sub-titled Un Padre si Ricorda
