This is a classical guitar solo I wrote during a composition jag about 20 years ago. I've been trying to improve my playing back to where it was then, but busyness, carpal tunnel and stiff fingers keep me at a plateau below where I want to be. Instead of playing this live on my guitar, I did the next best thing, using the software instruments and doing as much tweaking as I could to get it to sound right. As usual in this situation, there are no mistakes, but no touches of spontaneous inspiration either.

This is the first of three songs that go together: Waltz, Romance, and Carnival. They are short pieces with simple themes. I hope you enjoy them. If any guitarists would like to try playing them on guitar, I have them written out and annotated. Just drop me a message.
