Hello Edgar,
I was telling a friend how difficult it was for me to get all the musical ideas I have in my head in to songs and he came out with your name.
If there any books from you or do you give lessons there in NYC or on the Internet....could you please let me know??
I thank you in advance.
Best regards, Leonardo Amuedo
