Classical banjo player John Bullard wrote me About Fernando Fuentes, a 3-finger banjo player from buenos airies who has released "Banjo Signals"(Although only in Argentina). John described the recording like this: "Fernando has put out a nice CD with a very broad range of music-from classical and classic finger-style to bluegrass. the interesting point to me, is that he lives in Argentina, where there isn´t a lot of exposure to the banjo but interestingly, seems not to be constrained by the many preconceived notions that american players might have. he seems to just play (and record) whatever pleases him." There include Bach´s Bourée and minuet in G, Fireball Mail, panhandle Rag, Tis So Sweet, Un Gran Cielo Azul, The William Tell Overture on Youtube.
