Description: | Although Smith Brindle composed a variety of works including an opera, he is best known for his guitar
music. The poetic and lyrical Etruscan Preludes express the mystery of an ancient and lost civilisation,
while the enigmatic El Polifemo de oro expresses poet and playwright Federico GarcÃa Lorcaâ??s attribution of
occult powers to the guitar. From the beautifully expressive Nocturne to the extreme effects of Percussion
Piece (from Guitarcosmos, Vol. 3), the sheer virtuosity of invention in Smith Brindleâ??s guitar music led Julian
Bream to commend his diversity of style and clarity of intention.
