Tommy Emmanuel CGP

Dear Tommy,
I was at your performance in Tel Aviv 2 nights ago, I have to admit that I'd never heard of you before, though I'm a music lover I'm not well up in guitar playing. A friend took me as a present for my 80th birthday, knowing that music is one of my great loves. I have to tell you that I haven't enjoyed a performance like that for a long time, you are amazing. The dexterity of your fingers on the strings, your arrangements and the feeling and energy that you put into it , all go together to produce an evening of pure delight. There were times that it was hard for me not to get up and dance ! I loved the piece you played just before the end ( I didn't catch what it was called ) it was before you played with the percussion brush , you certainly have some original ideas.
If you should come to Israel again I will definitely be there and bring my family with me. My 8 year old grandson is learning piano and is very musical which he inherits from his Mum and my younger daughter has a beautiful voice ,had singing lessons for years and has been in one or two musicals so as you can see we appreciate fine musicians.
Thank you so much for an evening to be remembered and to be part of my 80th celebrations.
I look forward to your next visit.
I apolagise for such a long letter, I'm sure you get so many ,but hope you have the patience to read it, I just had to tell you how I felt.
Take care and come back to Israel soon, we all love you.
Yours very sincerely,
Jane Klapper.

Oklahoma girl in Gothenburg. Really looking forward to the concert Saturday night.

hi tommy,
I just wanted to say that your concert in Israel was great. I mainly play your songs and I found something realy inspiring in your show and in the way you play.
I`m 14 years old and I started to play guitar in the 6th grade. I "discoverd" you on Youtube only 6 month ago.

I truly appreciate your work !
best wishes from Israel (row 4) !

Saw your concert in Tel Aviv.
Best night out I have had in a long time.
Inspiration to both guitar players and just music lovers.
Thanks for the fantastic show!

Be seeing you next January in Las Vegas (Henderson). We are really looking forward to it.

Hi Tommy,

Have you ever performed in Omaha, NE? We have a wonderful
venue called the Holland Center.

Mr. Emmanuel,
What an outstanding and humble guitarist! I take every opportunity to listen to you, and will in person, when you come to north Texas on tour. I am 68, and have been a fan of Chet Atkins since I was a teen. I still play a little - not much - but am still a fan of "great" anything. I still remember the old saying, "You'd better put that old guitar away; there ain't no money in it, and it'll lead you to an early grave." Maybe for some folks, but not all. I introduce all guitarists in the area to your YouTube videos. Outstanding. It's such a pleasure to listen to and watch you play so effortlessly. Many thanks for all you do. I no longer read music, either (I did when I was a kid taking piano lessons), but I am a fan of those of you who can play on the fly.

Hi Mr E.!
My brother and I caught your show in Tel Aviv the other day,
and were not very surprised... To be amazed.
Not only did we have incredible fun listening to you,
you seemed to be having AT LEAST as much fun as we were!
You genuinely inspire us with your skills every time.
And also amazing is the feeling of easiness, how it all flows out from you,
the naturality of it .. If I didn't know any better I'd say you were born
on a G major

We'd love to see your here again sometime!
Thank you,
-Itai
