    Hello Ken, welcome to the EG&V Website!

    Hi Ken!
    Long time no see! 

    Are you OK to have a discussion directly. Just to catch up basically. You were being cagey about your research and you mentioned you had some revelations to make about Sor.

    I see its now your doctoral thesis! i have had a skim only. Back in those days I would have finished it by now but I might have look at the relevant highlights based on your recommendations.
    So there are connections to Murcia? Is that the relevant bit ? I think we were discussing the fact that Sor would have been trained in the baroque tradition and would have been familiar with the 5 course.
    And you mentioned a connection between your guitar and mine. Also a connection to look at?
    My email is john.bertram@iinet.com.au if you are OK to chat directly or just via this chat line (I don't quite understand how it works!)
    Good to hear from you and congrats on the thesis.
    Hope to have further (brief if preferred!) discussion
    Cheers
    John
    PS This blasted website is hopeless!! ;-) I got your message, responded to it as above in outlook directly. I thought I had better check it was sent Ok. Only to see the return address was "do-not-reply". Hope this gets through!

    Hi Ken,

    Hope you are doing well - I was trying to find your e-mail but no luck, then found you here.

    I've got some material to send you on Panormo and was wanting to get either an e-mail or a drop box address.

    Hope you and Eska are well,

    Best wishes,

    Ian
