Hey, thanks for visiting.  This site is going to get a face lift soon, before the end of 2007...

One of the things I enjoy doing is transcribing and recording classical violin pieces on the electric guitar.  Now,  I concentrate almost exclusively on the Romantic Period (some 20th Century stuff).  Lately, I've been playing around with Paganini's concerto no. 1 and Prokofiev's rarely heard Violin Concerto #1.

In August of 2000, I recorded the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto, a project I'd been working on for about 7 years off and on.  A few months later in March of 2001, I transcribed, learned, and recorded the Bruch Violin Concerto.  In February 2003 (after recovering from a broken wrist!), I recorded the Glazunov Violin Concerto.  These are really neat pieces - especially if you like classical music and shredding.  Take a look:

• Tchaikovsky ~ Violin Concerto in D Major

• Bruch ~ Violin Concerto no 1 in g minor

• Glazunov ~ Violin Concerto in a minor
