How's it goin'? I haven't been on here much lately. I've been using Facebook a smidge more. So I keep forgetting to get back to people. Sorry 'bout that.
Hi Greg, thanks sooo much for coming out, it was special to have you there, and thanks for your nice comments. Still working on selling my Gibson, and keeping my fingers crossed that with Glen's cosmic oversight I will be able to own one of your musical works of art. I very much appreciate all your help & friendship! julie

Hi, and thanks for the friendship! The Danish composer Per Nørgård's music has been much on my mind the past few years. Arguably the most important now living Scandinavian composer also has a remarkable output for the guitar. I spent a couple of years working with the composer on this repertoire, spanning from 1973 to 2000, in order to embrace the emerging performance practice associated with his work.
I have just uploaded 10 new tracks, all taken from "Tales From the North", my double CD box with the complete guitar works of Danish composer Per Nørgård. Also, in my latest blog you will find recent reviews of this release.
For further reading about the composer, this is an excellent website, with articles by a series of scholars and performers that have dedicated much study to his work:
