NEUE KARL SCHEIT GITARREN EDITION-Perhaps the most famous of the Baroque lutenists Silvius Leopold Weiss also composed prolifically for the instrument. These pieces will make welcome additions to the usual guitar repertoire for although only a few of his pieces for solo lute are really suitable for the guitar the idiomatic sound of both instruments is close enough to justify these arrangements.

New Chamber Music for GuitarThere has recently been an unprecedented demand for difficult works for guitar with various accompanying instruments. To make up for the unfortunately very limited repertoire this arrangement of Mozart's ‚'duo for violin and viola' has been launched which replaces the viola by the guitar. It is striking that the guitar character of the viola part is already evident in the original and thus the latter could almost exclusively be directly transferred into the guitar part. A 'new' repertoire piece for chamber music with guitar which is just as good as the original!

Media Comments:(...)A publication that is relevant and enjoyable to use on your own as it is in a tutorial setting is a rare thing indeed but wonderfully achieved here by Richard Graf in his book of duos Guitar for Two. Entertaining titles of original works include Mission Possible (an entertaining spoof version of Mission Impossible) and Reggae for Carmen (an amusing mix of Stevie Wonder’s Masterblaster and the Habañera from Carmen) as well as other more traditional arrangement of tunes such as Danny Boy and House of the Rising Sun. The relatively simple top line combined with the more detailed accompaniment offers a range of challenges which will make this book of usethroughout the easy to intermediate stages of learning the guitar. A CD included allowing accompanied performance of the pieces at home. Although the CD is performed on steel-strung guitars this book is nevertheless also perfectly relevant for classical guitarists. Graf has pitched his writing to provide challenging yet idiosyncratic pieces within a framework of highly entertaining styles.(...)(Music Teacher 6/03)Contents: Graf Richard: RichBlues · Bonfa Luiz: Manha de Carneval (Black Orpheus) · Graf Richard: Rain in Spain · Scarborough Fair · Graf Richard: Mission Possible · Russian Tango (Dark Eyes) · Graf Richard: Whatz up · Reggae for Carmen (Habanera) · Graf Richard: Sad Tango · Graf Richard: Flip Flap · House of the Rising Sun · Graf Richard: Bolero · Danny Boy · Oh Happy Day · Graf Richard: Zeit vergeht

24 Favourite Pieces Arranged For The Moderately Advanced Guitarist. Par COLES PAUL. 'From Folk to Classical 2” is a mouth-watering collection of 24 arrangements for classical guitar by Paul Coles. The classical pieces include many favourites, including a few you would not expect to hear on the guitar, such as 'Habanera” from 'Carmen” and Saint-Saën's famous 'Swan” but they really work! Traditional folk numbers are not neglected, with 'Michael Row the Boat” and 'Londonderry Air” among the best known. The arrangements are for moderately advanced players (UK grade 5-6) and Paul has offered fingering help for both left and right hands. It follows Book 1 (UE 21673) which was published in 2017 (Grades 3-4). Try it, perhaps as a warm up for Book 2 if you don't already know it and then try Paul's '26 Melodic Studies” (UE 21670) or his 'Momentos Españoles” (UE 21671)./ Recueil / Guitare

Paganini was not only a famous Violin virtuoso but was also a masterful guitarist. Originally written for Violin and Guitar this Guitar solo version of the Grand Sonata captures the richness freshness and balanced structure of the original. Rhythmic and harmonic twists from the Violin part have been carefully integrated to ensure the spirit of the piece is preserved.

Robert de Visée (c.1655 1732) was a French lutenist guitarist and Court musician for both Louis XIV and Louis XV. Suite H-Moll is also known as Suite No. 11 in B Minor. It is written in 5 movements: Prélude Allemande Sarabande Gigue Passacaille. First published in the 1680s it was almost certainly written when de Visée was already a respected musician at Versailles and was probably performed in front of the Kings on many occasions. De Visée would have used a 5 string Baroque Guitar. It has been arranged for the modern 6 string instrument by the noted Guitar arranger and virtuosoKarl Scheit.
