- Ciao, Vincenzo!
Thank you very much for your comments. You can hear the sound of Portuguese guitars in the videos, and soundtracks I posted in my page, hope you like it. By the way, do you know a Milanese luthier, called Angelo Vaillati? He was my colleague at a classic guitar course, given by Jose Romanillos in Siguenza, Spain, in 1996, and his work is absolutely fantastic. Hope you enjoy my page, would like to have your comment to my music. Keep in touch!
