I started playing classical guitar when I was 14. I am now 66. I played into my 20’s and stopped because life got in the way. I started playing again when after I retired in 2019. When I was a teenager I randomly bought an album by Baden Powell because it had a nylon string guitar on the cover. I immediately fell in love and spent many hours in record stores hunting for more. I have been a fan my entire life. I saw Baden at the Blue Note in New York shortly before he died. I am eternally grateful for that opportunity. I have been waiting a long time for a book to come out like this. A big thank you to you!

Is there a physical copy of this book available for purchase?

Sorry, I don't provide a physical copy. But you can always find a local printer to print it and bind it for you. I've done that with many books. I guess you might find one online to send it to you, though I haven't tried that myself. Offering a hard copy on Amazon is not economical as they take most of the money, and I'm not set up to mail things out myself.

Thanks Tom no worries. I went ahead and purchased the digital copies. Just a quick question. On the piece Se Todos Fossem Iguais A Voce I noticed towards the ending it is completely different from the original piece. Was this your interpretation or added arrangement? Thanks.

I don't really understand. These are transcriptions. It's different from which original piece?
