Szendrey-Karper.
La
szlo Szendrey-Karper
(1932-1991) was an
internationally renowned
guitarist, and the
founder of organized
guitar teaching in
Hungary. He wrote an
instructional methodology
for the guitar, and
composed studies and
pieces for students. The
eight books of his series
Guitar Exercises and
Pieces provide a variety
of pieces for elementary
and intermediate guitar
students to play,
arranged in order of
difficulty. A basic
source for
Szendrey-Karper was
Hungarian folk songs, in
addition to which he
transcribed for the
guitar well known pieces
composed for other
instruments. Alongside
his own pieces and
etudes, he selected for
the series studies and
concert pieces by other
composers (including
Ferdinando Carulli,
Matteo Carcassi, Johann
Krieger, Henry Purcell,
and Laszlo Borsody).
