Most people thought that the guitar was suitable only for popular music or folk music. Few classical composers wrote music for the guitar,and it was never included in classical concerts. But Segovia changed all this. He believed in the guitar as a classical instrument,and he wae a great musician. He used his genius to prove that the guitar could produce beautiful classical music.
