Transcribed arranged and edited by concert guitarist David Nadal. This unique anthology samples the vast repertoire available for the beginning and intermediate guitarist. A number of these pieces have never appeared in a modern edition while others have found their place among the world's best-loved compositions. Ranging from the earliest Italian lute tablatures to an arrangement of the American Favourite 'Dixie's Land' this edition will have something for everyone and must be the only one of its type in print.

Le guitariste espagnol Narciso Yepes (1927-1997) fut l'un des grands maîtres de son instrument et a été considéré comme le plus grand guitariste de l'Espagne, hormis Andrés Segovia et Emilio Pujol. Elève de Vicente Asensio, il avait un lien solide avec le flamenco - en 1947, Yepes fait la percée avec la performance de 'Concierto de Aranjuez' de Joaquín Rodrigo. Comme compositeur, Yepes fut reconnue internationalement en raison de sa musique de film de ' Jeux interdits ' (René Clément, 1952). Yepes ajouté de nombreuses transcriptions au répertoire de la guitare acoustique. L'anthologie nouvellement compilé contient les plus belles pièces du répertoire de ce brillant virtuose. / Guitare

9 pieces in Latin Style-9 Latin style pieces for both study and performance plus notes on the scores & fingering glossary of chord symbols and notes on rasgueados. The A-B-A-C-A Choros form is used as a basic structure for all of the pieces and the styles and moods of the music vary from traditional and classical to Bossa Nova and jazz samba. In Brasil the Choros (diminutive Chorinho) owes its development to musicians performing either solo or in groups who often being obliged to play long hours during functions and festivals would improvise and create variations on popular and traditional themes. The compositions here are all based on this idea of stating a theme andthen creating variations & contrasts. Although the melodic harmonic and rhythmic content of the Choros/Chorinho has evolved greatly over time its underlying beat feel is traditionally 2 per measure and written with a 2/4 time signature. This generally makes comfortable reading for the guitar player because the beamed note groupings define clearly the rhythm patterns to be played. However much music that originally appeared in 2/4 time is now published in 4/4 with a cut time feel and which seems to be favoured by many musicians including guitarists who work in folk and popular idioms. For this edition the time signature which allows a clearer page presentation is chosen for each piece and no musical difference between the 2/4 and the Cut-time signatures is intended.

David Starobin's Variations On A Theme By Carl Nielsen for Guitar (2010). Premiered by David Starobin at the Carl Nielsen Hall Odense4 June 2011. This short set of variations for solo guitar is based on Carl Nielsen’s Sang bag Ploven (Song Behind the Plow) originally a song for voice and piano from Nielsen’s opus 10 first published in 1899. The original Danish text is by Nielsen’s contemporary and friend the poet Ludvig Holstein.The piece is a personal celebration of my love affair with Danishmusic and musicians and the composition is dedicated to my friend the composer William Bland.David Starobin August 2010

Ruders writes: There's a solid tradition in the history of Western music of turning the theme of Nicolo Paganini's '24th Caprice' for soloviolin into a set of variations endemic to the time and style of each individual composer; Liszt Brahms Rachmaninov and Lutoslawsky being the most prominent names. When asked by David Starobin to write a concerto for him I though 'well why not have a go at it?' - bearing in mind that not only is Paganini the most celebrated violin-wizard of all times but he was also a more than accomplished guitarist. There are 22 variations in all numbers 1 to 16 all adhering strictly to the 16-bar pattern laid down by Paganini himself. From variation17 though the writing becomes more symphonic and the rigid 16-bar regime is being lossendes up a bit. However the last variation 'Finale Prestisimo' is a 6 x 16 bars 'white-knuckle ride' in which the hitherto soloistic role of the guitar gives way to that of 'primus interpares' i.e. 'first among equals'. As with another set of variations of mine 'Concerto on Pieces' (based on a tune by Purcell) the nature and shape of the 'Pagannini-Variations' may be compared to a stroll through a hall of mirrors: the 'portrait' - the theme is gradually being distorted out of all recognition - but it's still the same 'original' walking by.

In this Mel Bay publication guitarist/composer Rico Stover offers his original composition Romance Variations in a 25 page score of the work with accompanying audio.The RomanceAnonimo ('Anonymous Romance') is one of the most popular pieces in the classical guitar repertoire. Also known as Spanish Romance Romance de Amor Jeux interdits and Estudio de Rubira this 19th centurywork has continually delighted lovers of the instrument around the world and has become a standard part of guitar pedagogy.Different 'flavors' of guitar styles are heard in these variations which are inspired byguitarists/composers whom Rico admires: Mateo Carcassi Joe Pass Heitor Villalobos Luiz Bonfa Chet Atkins and Atahualpa Yupanqui.After a short introduction the Romance theme is heard after which the variations commence. Each variation follows the minor/major pattern:Variation 1: Arpegiado - classical arpeggios. Variation 2: Bordoneo - bass line textures. Variation 3: Villalobosiana - in the style of themaster. Variation 4: Bossanova - Brazilian syncopations. Variation 5: Chet's Pick - country style fingerpicking. Variation 6: Aire de Danza - Latin American dance rhythms.The essay 'Romance Anonimo: Who Composed It?'explores the different theories regarding the question of authorship including an analysis of seven different editions of the Romance that date from 1900 to 1958.

A staple of the serious Guitar reportoire Sor's Variations On A Theme Of Mozart is both beautiful to listen to and rewarding to play. Mozart's contribution is relatively minor Sor having only made use of the basic melody from the theme of The Magic Flute as the basis of the piece; the work as a whole has to be attributed to Sor. It is testament not only to Sor's groundbreaking mastery of his own instrument but also to his general musical genious; this with the brilliant simplicity and familiarity of a Mozart melody blended in.
