As Eric Henderson writes himself, when he was 13, his teacher took him to attend a concert by the great Spanish guitarist Andres Segovia. His teacher also arranged a private meeting with Eric and the maestro. Upon hearing him play, Segovia invited Eric to come study with him in Spain. Eric became only the third person ever invited to study privately with Segovia. We'll hear Eric Henderson playing several pieces, including one of his own compositions. We'll start with the Bach-influenced Etude No. 1 by Heitor Villa-Lobos. Then we'll hear another small etude, by Fernando Sor (No. 9). Then comes Henderson's own Prelude No. 3 ("Homage"). We finish with Moreno Torroba's wonderful Sonatina. To listen, click here.
