Julian Bream, 1981

In 1981 I accepted a commission to produce photographs for a book to be written by Tony Palmer about Julian Bream, the virtuoso classical guitarist and lutenist. Between March and November that year I accompanied Bream on his travels around the UK, to the near continent of Europe, to Yugoslavia and Romania, and to the USA. This is a selection of pictures from that book.
