Classical Guitar Delight

Soloist Michalis Kodaxakis and his worthy student, upcoming young guitar soloist, Konstantinos Avlonitis offer us a program that bridges Spanish and Greek classical guitar music; works by Spanish composers from different areas of Spain (Katalonia, Valenthia, Bourgos) of varied styles but all quite demanding to perform followed by works by Hatzidakis transcribed by M. Kodaxakis and by Kostas Grigoreas, especially dedicated to the soloist M. Kodaxakis.
