Nice–sounds like something Scarlatti might have written.
Beautiful playing and arrangement. I think Baroque music is so suited to the guitar.

Dear Bradford,
You have appeared on my screen for many years, playing, teaching and discussing all kinds topics. It seems like you are a personal friend.
Performances by the great masters (Segovia, Bream, Williams) are awesome, but music performed by those one personally knows has a special appeal. All you know of that person, their voice, personality and shared experiences are there behind the guitar.
Is there a collection of pieces that you performed available? Something similar to an iTune album that can be downloaded?
I am sure your students and friends would love to support you and purchase recordings of your performances.

Aww, shucks, thanks for those kind words. I also consider my followers to be my friends…so…many…friends! I don’t have a solo album specifically. I guess I should get on that but I’ve been so busy just doing videos. I am working on an all Italian concert programme which might work. I also have an Early Music from Italy collection I’m playing which I might record.
