John Schneiderman is one of the great modern virtuosi, combining a formidable technique with very refined feeling. As one critic put it: “Obviously what we are dealing with here is extreme virtuosity.”
I first came across John as a lute player, then became envious of his Herman Hauser I 10-string guitar (check out his YouTube videos with that instrument), and finally discovered his sterling work as a Russian guitar soloist or duo partner with Oleg Timofeyev. I’d also like to put a plug in for his duo album of Beethoven arranged for two guitars – stunning!
Here are some of John Schneiderman’s Russian Guitar Videos and Recordings:
