The fingering on nearly all 'modern' editions of the Carcassi studies Op. 60, to a very large extent if not almost completely, derives originally from Llobet, who in his Rowies, Paris 1914 edition was the very first to publish RH fingering for them. Many modern editors just put their own names on what was Llobet's fingering, thus silently claiming it as their own. A process being continued even to this day. We are pleased to present a carefully restored facsimile of this edition from Llobet's library with all his fingering and emendations intact.

Kaum ein Instrument bietet so viele verschiedene Spieltechniken und Begleitmoglichkeiten wie die Gitarre. Dieser Band tragt diesem Phanomen Rechnung und beantwortet wichtige Fragen rund ums Thema Rhythmus. Was sagt mir ein einzelnes Akkordsymbol? Wie verstehe und interpretiere ich ein Harmonieschema? Wie bekomme ich einen Uberblick uber die verwirrend vielen verschiedenen Harmonien? Ein Mix von Ubungsbeispielen und bekannten Standards ermoglicht auch Einsteigern den schnellen Zugang zur jazzigen Spielweise, zumal die anfangs gezeigten Akkordverbindungen keine Fingerakrobatik erfordern. Es wird vielmehr Wert darauf gelegt, die vielfaltigen Variationsmoglichkeiten aufzuzeigen und die eigene Kreativitat zu fordern. Durch die Darstellung der Akkorde als Griffdiagramm ist es moglich, ohne Notenkenntnis erfolgreich mit dem Buch zu arbeiten.

Mauro Giuliani's Rossiniane, published between 1821 and 1828, are a series of six musical potpourris entirely based on the music of Gioachino Rossini. The potpourri was one of the most popular instrumental genres of the early 1800s, an assembly of musical themes with different origins combined into a single composition. In the absence of the modern means of reproducing music, they had a very important function: of bringing music, most often created for the theatre, into the home. Some important points can be deduced from Giuliani's epistolary exchanges: the first is that the Rossiniane were part of his own concert repertoire: the second is that Rossini was not only aware of the project which would bear his name, but also collaborated with Giuliani in some ways, providing him with some themes expressly composed for his works. The third is that Giuliani was well aware that these pieces represented a new development for his own compositions and for the musical panorama of the time, “a hitherto-unknown style.†This edition of the Rossiniane is based on the contemporary musical sources that have come down to us. It is enhanced by some remarks on interpretation that should help towards making an accurate and coherent reading of this distinctive and original musical text.

Composition winner of the 2nd Edition (2008) of the Classical Guitar Musical Composition Competition â??Suoni Nuovi Autoriâ?? in Latina, Italy (Section 1)The composition Roma born after a short travel in the eternal city. The multiple cultural, historical and landscaped stimuli that derive from its ruins must touch the mind of every visitor dipping it and transporting it behind in the history: these are the feelings that have inspired the composition of a conceptualistic-descriptive music work, dedicated to the places that more meant during the authorâ??s travel. First part, â??Anfiteatro Flavioâ??, is clearly dedicated to Colosseo. It is so imposing and majestic that recalls still today the outcry of the battles and the noise of the iron: all that is translate in music with frequent changes of time and a virtuosistic and pressing writing. The apex of the fight marks in the composition a growing culminated in a moment of suspension and the immediate resumption with change of theme for the victory moment and its majestic celebration.The second part, â??Villa Borgheseâ??, marks the passage to a situation of ecstasy and serenity inspired from the beauty and tranquillity of the places of the famous roman park. The composition develops with sweetness but are also present dissonant notes that recall the park contextualizzation in the heart of the city, with its chaotic present and with the urgent violence of its past.
