Nylon or steel, nickel plated or wound round, Sean Kelly has strummed and plucked many a guitar string, but like many, his folks had him get his grounding in the classics. It is to those roots that he returns with the latest installment of Universal's immensely popular "#1" series, The #1 Classical Guitar Album.
Between classical & rock, from his studies with Eli Kassner (the virtuoso who studied with the father of classical guitar, Andres Segovia) to recording with Gilby Clarke (of Guns N’ Roses / Rockstar Supernova) and touring with Alice Cooper, Sean has more than seen the wide-ranging appeal of the guitar – he’s lived and breathed guitar in all its incarnations.
Paying homage to his classical roots, The #1 Classical Guitar Album features the pieces that inspired Sean and that strike a familiar chord with people of all musical tastes. From Romance (anonymous) to Albéniz’s Asturias and Stanley Myers’ Cavatina, Sean breathes fresh life into the works that have made the guitar one of the best loved of all instruments.
