吉他家约翰威廉斯是澳洲有史以来最知名的古典音乐家，也是二十世纪下半叶西班牙以外地区最知名的吉他家。他九岁随着他人迁回英国，十一岁就前往意大利由西班牙吉他大师赛戈维亚所开设的夏日音乐学校追随大师学琴，十五岁进入英国皇家音乐院就学时，还因为该校当时连吉他部门都没有，只好主修钢琴。在那个年代，除了西班牙以外，很少国家是把吉他视为正统的古典乐器纳入音乐院授课的。也就因为这样，约翰威廉斯一从英国皇家音乐院毕业，该校立刻就邀请他留任，担任该校新成立的音乐部门的主任兼教授，他也因此在该部门授课两年。
十七岁时举办个人生平第一场独奏会，之后在唱片公司的支持下，他成为全球最多产的古典吉他演奏家，他所灌录的吉他曲目也远远超过所有其它的吉他家。而且约翰威廉斯和其它古典吉他家最大不同之处在于，他的音乐兴趣范围极广，尤其对于现代音乐独具慧根，他自己也对流行和爵士、摇滚音乐相当热衷，自己组了一个融合爵士乐团Sky、还是位作曲家，还组了一个摇滚古典融合二重奏团。
约翰威廉斯第一张在索尼的唱片在1964年发行，从此他就成为索尼的独家艺人，而且在索尼的支持下，他从六零年代就决意走出自己的吉他曲目，不受到西班牙吉他前辈一意专注于西班牙曲目的局限，所以他第一张吉他协奏曲中就已经录了两位现代吉他协奏曲作曲家的作品，之后更立刻在三年后灌录更为罕见的英国现代作曲家Dodgson的吉他协奏曲。同时，他也将注意力放到以往更少被注意的及合奏作品，为吉他演奏寻找新路，像是和小提琴家帕尔曼合作的帕格尼尼吉他与小提琴二重奏作品、与知名歌手Cleo Laine合作的歌曲，以及最重要的是和英国本土吉他大师朱瑞安布尔姆的合作。布尔姆大约翰威廉斯八岁，他不承袭西班牙吉他演奏的曲目和技法，开创了自己的演奏路线。
