This collection of 19th and early 20th century airs and ballads is a celebration of American music that is ideal for guitar recitals and encores. Written in standard notation only, the pieces are arranged and fingered for ease of sight-reading and specifically designed to exploit the musicality of the classical guitar.The book features arrangements of the antebellum song, ôDarling Nelly Grayö by Benjamin Hanby, popular Civil War-era songs by Stephen Foster and other period songwriters, plus parlor music favorites like Edward MacDowell�s ôTo a Wild Roseö, Ethelbert Nevin�s ôMighty Lak� a Roseö, and ôAura Leeö, a melody by George R. Poulton that would resurface nearly a hundred years later as ôLove Me Tenderö.á.
