Born João Teixeira Guimarães in Pernambuco, Brazil, he became known for blending traditional Brazilian folk rhythms with classical guitar techniques.

I am working through this piece and watched the video tutorial as well. The fingerings are very natural and the score is very easy to follow. Wonderful release. I especially liked Bradford's syncopated accompaniment; I think Russell plays it without any, but Bradford's version sounds much better to me personally.
Thanks so much. Yes, seems like people choose one way or the other but mixing them is fun!
