By Johann Kaspar Mertz. By Johann Kaspar Mertz. Arranged by Erik Gibelyou. 19th Century,Classical,Romantic Period. Guitar Tab. 6 pages. Erik Gibelyou #766118. Published by Erik Gibelyou (A0.1165745).“Gebeth” (Prayer) is one of the most beautiful and moving character pieces written by Johann Kaspar Mertz (1806–1856). Born in Pressburg (modern Bratislava), Mertz later established himself in Vienna as an excellent guitarist and guitar composer. This piece comes from his Bardenklänge (Bardic sounds) written in 1847, a series of short pieces written in the style of piano miniatures popular at the time. An angelic, harp-like introduction gives way to a unique and breathtaking arpeggio figuration in the second half.
This modern edition in standard notation with tablature is easy to read and includes corrections to fingering and articulation compared to the original edition. To help with learning the piece, suggested fingerings, articulations, and performance notes are included. Dr. Erik Gibelyou holds a Doctor of Musical Arts degree in classical guitar performance from the Eastman School of Music. See more at www.erikgibelyou.com.
