I discovered the unique "chord melody" style of solo jazz guitar many years ago when I began studying with the late, great guitarist Harry Leahey, who had studied this particular art with the late, great guitarist Johnny Smith. It was the dawn of a new world for me. This way of playing struck me with such force that I quickly became obsessed with it as well as with the desire to explore everything that was possible to play on the guitar. “Arrangements for Guitar” is the result of many happy years of my exploration of this challenging and rewarding approach to playing the guitar.
