Frederic Chopin was one of the most original and influential composers in history. Although he only lived 39 years he wrote music that has thoroughly embedded itself in our culture. His melodies are often instantly familiar to us and show a profound lyric sense. Many qualities of Chopin's music are ideal for guitar transcription. He wrote pieces that are short with a manageable range. The textures are mostly single melody lines with harmonic accompaniment without the complex counterpoint that can be so difficult on the guitar. His music is often soft intimate subtle and full of naunces of articulation dynamics and phrasing. These qualities transfer quite naturally to the guitar. While remaining as faithful as possible to the composer's musical intentions these pieces experienced some modification that is noted in the provided performance notes. Intermediate in difficulty this book assumes the player has basic knowledge of the guitar and familiarity with either standard music notation or guitar tablature. Selections include: Prelude Op. 28 No. 7 - Prelude Op. 28 No. 20 - Prelude Op. 28 No. 4 - Cantabile; Mazurka Op. 6 No. 2 - Prelude Op. 28 No 15 - Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2 - Nocturne Op. 15 No. 3 - Nocturne Op. 37 No 1 and Nocturne Op. 55 No. 1. All of these beautiful pieces are included on the companion audio. Access to audio available online.

In adapting Chopin?s masterful Nocturne No 2 for Guitar Francisco Tárrega simplified some sections while retaining the flavour style and delicacy of the original. It is a work of extreme difficulty for Guitarists and is just one of the many works by Chopin Mendelssohn Beethoven and others that Tárrega adapted.Modern proponents of serious Guitar may not know the debt they owe to Francisco Tárrega who began his performing and teaching career at a time when the Guitar was at a particularly low ebb in the late 1800?s. He studied Guitar and Piano and with the acquisition of an especially loud instrument by a luthier in Seville he launched a stage career following study atthe Madrid Conservatory. Through his tours and his pupils Tárrega influenced the popularity of the Guitar in the 20th century enormously.
