  http://www.paul-galbraith.com/paulmain.html
  At the age of 17, Galbraith won the Silver Medal at the Segovia International Guitar Competition. Andrés Segovia, who was present, called his playing "magnificent." This award helped launch an international career including engagements with some of the world's finest orchestras. In 1998 his Bach recording was nominated for a Grammy award for Best Solo Instrumental Album. This 2-CD set was also chosen as one of the two best CDs of the year by Gramophone Magazine, which called it "a landmark in the history of guitar recordings."
  
  "His phrasing was superbly clear and executed with ease…. Of particular note were his unbelabored trills, which possessed fluidity and sparkle, seeming to float on top of the music…. Playing the faster movements with a dazzling ferocity and the slower ones with an introspective, thoughtful elegance was a showcase for Paul Galbraith's ability both as a guitarist and as a musician…." Guitar Review
