An Exaltation Of Larks
Brian Cameron

This collection of classical, Renaissance, bluegrass and other fingerpicking
songs are some of my favorite pieces to play.  The songs mention when they
were composed aside from the classical pieces written by Matteo Carcassi
(1792-1853), Mauro Giuliana (1780-1829), Georg Handel (1685-1759), and
Fernando Sor (1778-1839).  The process of recording these pieces has been
highly rewarding and beneficial.  Although the material only took a few
months to play, over two years of preparation went into this CD.  I hope you
enjoy listening to the results.
