Cooperman's Walking on Water was inspired by Peter Sellers' last film 'Being There,' and Ponce's 'Folia de Espana' is often considered one of the most magnificent guitar pieces ever written. Between 1986 and 1988 Canadian-born Dale Kavanagh was a top prizewinner in Spain's Segovia Competition, Italy's Gargnano Competition, Switzerland's Neuchatel Competition, and first and special prizewinner in Finland's Scandinavian International Guitar Competition.
