La Guitara

Women guitarists have had a long history of trying to assert their place in the music community. Long played by male hands only, the guitar was never considered a "woman's" instrument. Now, thanks to the emergence of more talented female guitarists, the guitar is no longer just for the guys.

La Guitara showcases a sampling of the world's finest women guitar players. The album features artists versed in a variety of musical genres, from classical, to folk, to blues, to jazz. Aside from their different musical backgrounds, the guitarists come from different cultural backgrounds including, the United States, Canada, and Brazil. Each guitarist on this album is a respected musician, and it would be unfair to mention just a few. Every track on this album is a triumph, and a validation of female guitarists everywhere.
