Il Festival di Sarzana resta sempre l'evento più importante in Italia per la chitarra acustica.
Nota bene: è in uscita anche la edizione in inglese del libro.
"I first met Giovanni Palombo many years ago when he came as a student to
the Berklee Umbria Jazz clinics. He was already a solid guitarist who like
all of us was searching for his own voice.
We met many times after that as friends. Giovanni quickly discovered his
love of the acoustic guitar and it's many possibilities long before it was
in fashion. He is an excellent writer and has organized some very
interesting groups to perform his writing. I'm sure any guitarist
interested in exploring the many possibilities of the acoustic guitar would
benefit greatly from this book. Congratulations Giovanni"
