Barrios Guitar Quartet plays La Follia by Vivaldi

Watch this all the way through as it really gets going. I also like the plucky filled out sound of the Baroque guitar in there. Spectacular! Barrios Guitar Quartet plays Antonio Vivaldi “La Follia”

You can buy or listen to samples of their album: El Calor Del Dia : Heat Of The Day

With their sensitive, dynamic and precise playing and unadorned virtuosity, these musicians are setting new standards for their genre. In the past years the BGQ has become an extraordinary creative force, its musicality further adding to the many different facets of classical guitar playing. “a major voice in the world of guitar ensembles” William Kanengiser (Los Angeles Guitar Quartet)
