In this episode I discuss Giuliani (not that one), the Classical period, the so called "Black Crowes" reunion tour, and we listen to the music of Lance Olivieri.

In episode 2 of the CGC Podcast I give updates about getting in touch with the show, reflect on a guitar recital in Salt Lake City, and we hear "Lake Suite" by Andrei Krylov.

This is the maiden voyage of the Classical Guitar Composers Podcast, the place where you get to send in recordings of your own original compositions for the classical guitar, and we play them on the show.  If you have a guitar piece you'd like to submit for the next episode, email an mp3 file and a short description to chris@classicalguitarcomposers.com.

Enjoy!
