This is one of my favorite interviews. Michael is a dedicated, devoted, and determined musical artist. He overcame what would have been the end of many classical guitarists' careers by sheer willpower, adaptability, and versatility to place himself as one of the great guitarists of our time. It was our great pleasure to interview him.

A great interview with Finnish Guitarist Patrik Kleemola. I discovered Patrik through his YouTube Channel and was pleasantly surprised. His video and audio work, which he does himself, is outstanding. His playing and musicianship are even better.
