"Glise
on Guitar"® first went up on satellite in October,
1993. The series was funded by NWMS University, and by generous
grants from LaBella String Company (cf. "Endorsements")
and by Willis Music Company. Without their kind support
this series would have never achieved its tremendous international
recognition.
The
series was downlinked by hundreds of radio stations across the
US, and was picked up by AFN (Armed Forces Network) who distributed
the series throughout Europe, the Far-East, and Central and South
America, establishing "Glise on Guitar"®
as the largest internationally-syndicated guitar program in the
world.
Each
program highlights one theme and one guest. The series features
interviews that Glise made with some of the leading guitarists
and guitar-related musicians in the world, including:
