Baroque style classics November 14, 2007
The title, "For Thy Pleasure" is very apt. I had to pass it along to our pastor and his wife, they also have been delighted with this CD.
LAGQ is the best.
Delightful October 1, 2007
A gorgeous collection of guitar works and arrangements, fluently performed - and with real panache. So good, my own private wedding-video is accompanied by them!
The best LAGQ yet September 4, 2007
Phenomenal classical guitar with just a touch of the modern. Absolutely wonderful recording and a favorite of the LAGQ catalog. A must have even if only for the playful Pachelbel variations.
Excelent Performance January 9, 2007
What can I say about Bach played by LAGQ but The Perfect Combination. The only thing reprochable is that some tracks like the "Loose" Cannon by Pachelbel ends in fade out instead of a real ending. I wish this was a two CD set.
For Thy Pleasure: Yeap, It is Very Enjoyable October 24, 2006

For the first time, I listened to LAGQ from Vermont Public Radio while I came back home. After listening to "Little Fugue In G Minor", I could not get it out of my mind. I like the original version of Bach's organ music but the LAGQ version gave me a different feeling of music: True melancholy.
Buying the cd gave me a lot of joyful time. All the music in the cd were excellent. I believe there are a lot of musicians who are techically perfect but only a few of them can give me this kind of pleasure. All the music are beautiful and graceful. On top of that all of them are absolutely enjoyable.
Please try the last track, "Canon In D: The Pachelbel 'Loose' Cannon" when you are blue.
