Kazuhito Yamashita - Plays His Favorites (Classical Guitar)

Yamashita shows that he is not only some speed burst freak, like he is frequently considered, but a wonderful musician with superb tone who is not ashamed to play Romance and some other very easy but beautiful pieces. His tone is really exquisite. You must see it.
