Websites of Other Guitarists

Aaron Brock recently died unexpectedly at the age of 31 from heart failure just as his career was starting to take off. I hadn't seen Aaron in quite a few years but we spent several summers together attending the Domaine Forget music school. Aaron was a very talented player and a great guy known for his sense of humour. The recordings and videos available on his website are a great tribute to his talent and passion for the guitar: www.AaronBrock.com

My friend and colleague Andrew Mah (Ottawa): www.AndrewMah.com

Francois Fowler and I studied at the University of Ottawa at the same time. He went to study with Bruce Holzman afterwards and still lives in the artistic capital of the south, Tallahassee, Florida: http://www.francoisfowler.com

Nangialai Nashir and I studied with Thomas Muller-Pering in Weimar at the same time. He now lives in Cologne, Germany. He translated the German page of this website and I translated the text of his CD to english. His website is only in German but there are some excellent excerpts from his CD on the site: http://www.nashir.info
