It's my great privilege to be the first to comment on this beautiful tribute video produced by Bill's good guitar buddy Dale Larsen who you can see at 6:03. His devoted wife Katherine at 5:43. Bill left this world on August 24, 2024.. Bill Park was as nice as the come.And truly one of the most accomplished musicians I have ever witnessed. Bill had it all: Immaculate playing, yes; but so musical and compelling, uncovering the emotional center and full potential excitement of everything he played. What you're hearing is from a live performance for the St. Louis Classical Guitar Society in 1997, on a CD entitled Guitar Summit Vol, 1. The applause you hear was captured live from an enraptured audience. Bill was an amazing person. To know him was a privilege. He did his own arrangements by ear. His music is a great legacy that will always remain as his gift to us. May he rest in peace.
