Pablo Sáinz-Villegas has ascended to the upper echelon of successful classical guitarists through a combination of his extraordinary skill as a player, his warm and inviting stage persona, and by focusing on a broad but always accessible repertoire that spans the Baroque era to the present day. You’re not going to hear angular and dissonant modern works from him.

Martin Simpson and Thomm Jutz, two highly respected guitarists steeped in traditional music, have joined forces to craft an exceptional new album with Nothing But Green Willow: The Songs of Mary Sands and Jane Gentry. This collection features 13 ballads sourced from the works of singers Mary Sands and Jane Gentry, as documented by the prominent English folklorist Cecil Sharp and his assistant Maud Karpeles in their 1917 publication English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians.
