Thank you. Lovely and enlightening conversation. It's interesting to hear Ms. Snowden speak of Julian's method because I had precisely the same impression of him when I met him. Lovely, gentle, brilliant and humble, and yet with a razor sharp knowledge and insight of exactly how he wanted a piece to sound. Glorious man. We miss him.

Thank you for such a wonderful interview. Rest in peace, Maestro.

This proves Bream's humility, which is evident in his playing. His whole approach was to get your ego out of the way of the music, which is something that is often sorely lacking in most performers.

[@JonDunnmusician]

Amen

[@userillusion86]

Great interview. Breams passion and emotion came out in his music, he gave absolutely everything of himself to the pieces and committed fearlessly and 100% which is why he’s my all time favourite musician.

[@cgq111]

Did he compose?

[@msblue1003]

Wow! What a great teacher Mr Bream was!

Steve Goss came to Brazil in 2013, he was a kind of angel for us, in São Paulo Leo Brouwer Festival. With all his chats, conferences and class, he gave to musicians a big present. I am looking forward to know Laura Snownden too, for me one of the gigants of our music and guitar world. While we wait for this occasion, I thank to this good friend and fantastic master for give to us the opportunity of listen Laura talking abour our dear Julian and his atmosphere now more close to us than never. Thanks!

Laura is dreamy like an British accented elf in the forest

He seems to have been a wonderful teacher.

[@ericlamont1302]

Thanks for the tru real emotional connection

[@ruggerobelloni4743]

I didn't know the Princess of Wales had anothe younger sister who looks and sounds so lovely. Years ago Johnny Carson told a guest, an expert gardener named Crusoe: " You haven't lost your British accent". She replied: "Johnny, you have an accent, I speak English!".

This guy sounds like a bad of M&M's being read out loud but what a great interview. Thank you.

Teach you to be yourself ..... reassuring the personal instantiation of the logos .

[@HalJikaKick]

My god she’s lovely

[@crazycat1345]

I believe Julien got a lot of his feeling for music playing Django gypsy jazz in his youth.

[@nationalsocialist8382]

Seems to me the word the lovely lady is struggling to find is understanding, and you can't get understanding better than from experience. I believe this is the lesson the great maestro was imparting. Rest in peace maestro, you are sorely missed.

[@mahomaho7489]

She is so cute and sweet.

[@RobertoMartinez-kv5tp]

Privilegiada Laura ✔

[@tomb374]

Is she as pretty as she is talented and intelligent or vice versa? Such a sweetheart

[@atheobe]

Take Raphael Feuillatre as your teacher..

[@hanskung3278]

I wish I had a British accent.

[@theloniuspunk383]

It's so sad to think that British people like Laura will be a minority in just a generation and lost forever a generation after that :'(

[@fightbacktohealth9625]

why so?

Let's keep the comments to music.

The flaw in your argument is that Laura Snowden is unique. There are no people like Laura. Each human is a unique being.
