In 2011 I went on a holiday to Italy with my family and I fell in love with the country. Having heard many classical guitars on the streets of Verona and Venice I decided I would give writing a duet for guitars a go and the tune is named after the Spanish Steps in Rome. I do not play the guitar but I have tried although I gave up in dismay when I realised my hands were too small. The following year I travelled to Rome with friends and actually got to see the Spanish Steps and I'm dreaming of the day I can go back and see the country again. Composed August 2011.
