Brilliant !

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is both an unusual and magnificent recording by the great guitarist John Williams. What makes this disc so unusual is that Williams chose to have himself accompanied by a second guitar, two marimbas, and bass. It all makes for a wonderful and joyous sound. Highly recommended."
