    John Renbourn's unique stylistic fusion of British folk music with elements of country blues, modern jazz, ragtime, classical and pre-Renaissance music has led to his becoming one of the foremost English fingerstyle guitarists. His solo albums of medieval-style contrapuntal playing, his recorded duets with guitarists Bert Jansch and Stefan Grossman, and his work with the folk-rock group Pentangle, all share the same characteristic: lyrical and innovative playing executed with a finesse that makes his style instantly recognizable.

"Performer, composer, arranger, recording artist, teacher, schooled musician and improvisor. Precious few of the many fine guitarists currently plying their trade combine all of these attributes as successfully as John Renbourn. He has been working at his craft for over 30 years. As a performer, he continues to tour the world. As a composer, he has written some of the most technically brilliant and musically satisfying fingerstyle guitar pieces in the repertoire. His arranging skills for guitar are legendary, ranging from altered-tuning accompaniments of traditional folk songs, to Renaissance keyboard pieces, to blues-infected jazz."

The Art Of Fingerstyle Guitar - DVD
The performers in this 60 minute DVD express different traditions, personalities and stylistic approaches through their guitars. Yet there is a commonality, not only in the instrument and fundamental approach to it but also in the choice of these players to take risks and to respect tradition. Bob Brozman plays Hawaiian Greetings unlike any of the Hawaiian guitarists of the 1920s, yet his version overflows with love of his sources. Peppino D'Agostino uses unorthodox techniques to transform his guitar into a Brazilian rhythm band.  Titles include: Stefan Grossman: Sheebeg An Sheemore · Bob Brozman: Hawaiian Greetings · Buster Jones: Funky Fingers · Martin Simpson: Medley: Lord Gregory/Bob's Song · Peppino D'Agostino: Grand Canyon, Ponteio · John Renbourn: Sweet Potato, Medley: Lament for Owen Roe O'Neill/Mist Covered Mountains Of Home/The Orphan · Martin Simpson & Bob Brozman: Bentonia, Chimes Of Timbuktu · Martin Carthy: Seven Yellow Gypsies · Stefan Grossman and Duck Baker: Danish Drone · Bob Brozman: Steel Guitar Stomp.
