Famed UK Guitarist Adrian Legg Offers Fans and Students Transcriptions of Over 20 of His Best Known Compositions for $2 Each on His Website
(firmenpresse) - LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/19/12 -- Long revered as an influential acoustic guitarist of "astonishing virtuosity" () and loved by critics and audiences around the globe for his "narrative melodies and nakedly emotive tones" (), is always finding new ways to connect with fans and make a musical difference in their lives.

"I wrote out a lot of material with some idea of perhaps making another book," he says, "but then took up the offer of a teaching slot at a UK music college for a year.
"I went back to how I'd started to learn to play with my right hand fingers, and found that the way I'd developed over time actually formed a viable course. My compositions also reflected that technical development, so it was quite a simple matter to tie them in to that.
"It doesn't matter if it's acoustic or electric, although ultimately the electric is much more flexible, and there are whole areas of what I do that are not feasible on an acoustic," Legg adds. "Along the way people have asked me for transcriptions of my pieces, so I hope what I've written out so far meets some of their requests. Nothing makes me happier than hearing my students play these songs and understand them."
The guitarist celebrates the release of his latest recording -- his first album since 2004's critically acclaimed Inheritance and first ever self-released project -- with a highly anticipated 17 city U.S. tour this July that hits cities on the and in the .
