											<description><![CDATA[<p>a big thanks to everyone in canberra who attended the recent duo 19 recital, great to see you all, antony and i look forward to returning with our debut cd.big thanks to messrs sloss, kain, le hoang, withers and the entire canberra classical guitar society for all their help in getting it happening</p>
<p>ant and i head back into the studio to finish it off in a couple of weeks with a view to having all audio completed by the end of 2011. the cd should hopefully be out through move records before the bounce of the 2012 afl season...the home and away season, not that silly pre season comp that starts in the hot months...</p>
<p>2012 concert season to be announced reasonably shortly. we are planning extensive touring to celebrate the release of the disc</p>

											<description><![CDATA[<p>last december antony field and i started work on our debut cd for move records. we are about to return to the studio for another session and are planning to have the cd out mid year. the album will feature works by nigel westlake, terry riley, mario castelnuovo-tedesco, phillip houghton and others. in other news i have begun working on a new solo work timothy hansen composed for me at the end of 2010 and i must say i am really looking forward to giving the premiere performance later this year</p>
<p>found a great lp at searchers records and books in smith st - alicia de larrocha playing all turina programme. awesome recording, sounds great on a rega/denon equipped thorens...and they only a wanted a lousy buck for it. also spinning warpaint's 'the fool' [thanks to joe at round and round] and shining's 'blackjazz' lps [thanks to jon p] - both released 2010, both worth a listen</p>]]></description>

											<description><![CDATA[<p>this friday night we are launching the fourth guitar trek cd entitled 'asturias: the spirit of spain'. no kidding. yes, the good folk at the abc have decided to unleash our fourth opus upon the unsuspecting cd buying/mp3 downloading public, and as the title suggests the disc features works by leading spanish composers, including turina, falla and albeniz. what the title does not suggest - however we're sure you'll be mighty chuffed to hear - is that the disc also features some humdingers by south american composers piazzolla, machado and bellinati. you can see the complete tracklisting and purchase multiple copies <a href="http://shop.abc.net.au/browse/product.asp?productid=306122&amp;SearchID=1&amp;SearchRefineID=2348791">here</a></p>
<p>we are celebrating said release by giving a recital for the <a href="http://www.cimf.org.au">canberra international chamber music festival</a> this friday 8th may, at albert hall which you'll find on commonwealth ave yarralumla in the australian capital territory. we do the business at 6pm</p>]]></description>

											<description><![CDATA[<p>this friday, january 23 2009, i will be giving a solo recital as part of the inaugural melbourne guitar festival. details as follows - melba memorial conservatorium of music buildings at 45 york street richmond, melbourne at 7.30pm. york st is just off punt road and an absolute piece of the proverbial to find. i am led to believe tix are a mind-numbingly cheap thirty clams - for that fair dinkum bargain price you also get to see local flamenco heros kieren ray and tom lee. i am also led to believe i shall be performing works by albeniz, castelnuovo-tedesco and iannarelli&nbsp;  <a href="http://www.melbourneguitarfestival.com/" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">http://www.melbourneguitarfestival.com/</a></p>]]></description>

											<description><![CDATA[<p>this weekend sees the premiere of a new concerto written for and dedicated to one daniel timothy mckay by the brilliant young composer timothy hansen. it's a super-exciting, dramatic, single movement work hot off the pencils - tim put the final touches on it mid august. a fantastic addition to the guitar's repertoire, which deserves to played a heap of times and make sr. hansen a pile of filthy lucre. these concerts will feature the canberra youth orchestra conducted by dom harvey. you can be a part of this historic event [!] by bustin' a move to</p>
<p><strong>The National Gallery of Australia</strong>, Canberra, at <strong>7pm</strong>, on either <strong>friday 19/09</strong> or <strong>saturday 20/09</strong> or both...tickets are only $15/10</p>
