You go listen to "Pictures at an Exhibition" (Modest Mussorgsky) Kazuhito Yamashita [Guitar] (copy this to search field in RU-vid). It's here. I think that's the most impossible-to-play guitar arrangement EVER, and I think it also set the standard - and the base notion that "It can be done" following which - this piece was arranged for the Guitar. Besides this - this thing is really a joy.

perhaps due to my advancing age, i'm finding many live music pieces played at a slightly fast tempo, rushed. a shame really given that clarity of the tone which is a difficult task in itself; but if one is to compare this piece with even less competent versions, one can find more changes of intensity as well as rhythm, which color my palette.
