Five years after the first, I set out to write a second sonata for the guitar I loved. And not only in order to be able to keep the overall title of the cycle (which is hereby closed), with its clear relation to Richard III, but also because of my attachment to Shakespeare's characters, or at least some of them, whose musical portrait I also want to make in of the second sonata, which was formed in a completely different way, felt compelled to do so. Aguecheek (Bleichenwang) is one of my favorite characters when I was a student in Braunschweig. Perhaps it was not only Shakespeare, but also the director and the Bleichenwang of a production in the theater there, around 1943, that caused me not to miss a performance of it. - Hans-Werner Henze Includes preface by editor in English, German, French.

This volume contains everything needed for guitar lessons: 58 easy original guitar pieces by Aguado, Mertz, Diabelli, Carulli, Sor or Carcassi, but also easy-to-play arrangements of classical music from the fields of orchestral music, chamber music or opera. Among them are themes from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, from Handel's Music for the Royal Fireworks, Mozart's Magic Flute, Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 or Verdi's Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves. It is this volume's concern to make classical masterpieces of concert literature accessible to children by means of such rather easy arrangements and make them enjoy classical music. All pieces are recorded on the accompanying CD to make it easier for the pupils to study and master the works.

This enduringly popular seasonal song has long been a Christmas favourite, even though the lyrics don't mention 'Christmas' at all. The words were by Dick Smith (1901-1935) and the music by Felix Bernard (1897-1944). The inspiration was reportedly a visit by Smithto Honesdale's (his hometown) Central Park when it was covered in snow. The first recording was made by Richard Himbers Ritz-Carlton Orchestra in 1934. The same year Guy Lombardo and his band, The Royal Canadians, took the song to number 2 in the US Billboard Chart, where it stayed for 9 weeks. It has since been recorded by over 150 artists, the most successful versions being by Perry Como and the Andrews Sisters, both released in 1946.
