Intermediate-level guitarists will enjoy playing through this varied collection of pieces all in one volume. A wide gamut of composers from the Renaissance to the nineteenth century is included along with a few anonymous contributions. Continuing with the techniques and carefully thought-out fingerings and notation employed in Dr. Afshar???s previous publication (Beginning Pieces for Classical Guitar) selections like ???Carcassi Study #3??? and ???Sor Studies Nos. 5 and 6??? require the execution of rest stroke technique on their melodies in order to distinguish them clearly from the concurrent free-stroke accompaniment.
