Pepe Romero btw Los Romeros

Bought this as new release in the late seventies

Unfortunately not reissued as CD - still there are CD`s availble from that era mainly with spanish or italian Baroque Music (esp the recordings with Neville Marrnier & the Academy St. Martin-in-the-Fields are worth to be obtained !!)

Looks interesting. I should go on a blitz and buy as much vinyl classical gtr albums as I can get my hands on.

This arrived in the mail today. In what perhaps is a first for the "OAC" series, the box had a little booklet inside with track listings (that are readable!) and a picture of Williams, in addition to the mini-album covers.

I've been listening to this today: Young Croatian hot shot Ana Vidovic.

Villa-lobos - Complete Solo Guitar Music

Fabio Zanon, gtr

I know this is part of the classical guitar cannon, but I'm learning and excited about checking it all out. I was looking for his string quartets, but thought I should check this out.

edit: and I'm really enjoying it a lot.

I have a version of this played by Narciso Yepes that was put out by DG from 1971. I'm not sure if DG ever released it on CD. There is a recording of the Villa-Lobos by Yepes along w/ Guitar Concerto that was put by DG in 1988 but I can't tell if this is a re-issue of the earlier recording or a newer recording from 1988.

I now have a copy of that John Williams box, I'll be listening to it when I'm on the road this week.

I plan to order this:

Classic Arts Showcase channel featured Segovia performing Albeniz yesterday. He was well into his 80s at the time, but his technique was absolutely flawless.

thoughts on Pictures at an Exhibition transcriptions for guitar and a few examples.

Claude Debussy arranged for ten stringed guitar and performed by Anders Miolin, (BIS).

I wrote the previous Miolin/Debussy blog post for a friend and noticed he had posted this mind blowing Stravinsky transcription by guitarist Tim Sparks.

Andreas Von Wangenheim, JS Bach - Six Suites for Violoncello Solo BWV 1007-1012, transcribed for Guitar

I've been enjoying this recently, not the typical Bach transcription* for gtr. He's moved them into different keys, I guess for ease of performance and tone. Very beautiful.

Arkivmusic description

* usual transcriptions are the Lute Suites and the Partitas and Sonatas for solo violin.

Another modern work transcribed for classical guitar. In this case, a György Ligeti cello sonata by Kostas Tosidis.

Julia Lange, classical guitar

Julia Lange is a rising star, quite a talented young classical guitar player. I spotted a video on Facebook and went surfing for more on YouTube. Here’s a few samples of her work, I’m looking forward to hearing more.

Béla Bartók: Sonata for Guitar, transcription by Christophe Dejour

Béla Bartók: Sonata for guitar. Originally written for solo violin. Arrangement for guitar: Christophe Dejour.
1. Tempo di ciaccona
2. Fuga. Risoluto, non troppo vivo 9,55´
3. Melodia. Adagio 14,45´
4 Presto. 21,54´

"The Sonata for Solo violin Sz.117,BB 124, by Béla Bartók is regarded as one of the most important solo works of the 20th century. It was premiered by Yehudi Menuhin, to whom it was dedicated, in New York on 26 November 1944.

In 2015, after many thoughts, – sketches and considerations, I finished the guitar arrangement. I can only hope that people will recognize my attempt of the arrangement were done with respect for the composer and the unique Music."

My favorite classical guitarist. For some unknown reason this great master is all but forgotten today. I don't see any of his albums being reissued outside of Japan.

But you may find this cheap Columbia re-issue LP if you're lucky.
