A small word about myself:

Born on 3 january 1951 I started playing guitar when I was 14 years old

in fact a bit late but my parents saw a pianoplayer in me!

I tought most things myself an after having followed a technical education

I decided that I wanted to be a musician. Untill that time I solely played

electric guitar. I studied classical guitar however but in the weekends I played

with my band. Besides giving guitarlessons I spent most of the time playing

with my band and I was taking care for the live accompaniment of several

dutch singers. I did this for about 20 years and learned a lot.

Len Verret of the interesting website: Early Romantic Guitar puts

it this way: "I'm glad that I played rockmusic because it helped me a lot

in playing classical pieces at the right tempo from the beginning to the end.

He has certainly right in that view.
