We proudly
present this new modern
critical edition of
Antoine de Lhoyer's Six
Exercices Op. 27,
originally published in
Paris around 1812. These
exercises, originally
written for 5-string
guitar, are remarkably
advanced for their time
and well worth playing;
the rapid arpeggio
patterns and daring
harmonic shifts in some
of them may bring even
Villa-Lobos to mind. The
Six Exercices Op. 27 were
arranged by Giuliani and
published some 7 years
later under his name as
Six Preludes Op. 83. The
exercises were originally
written for 5-string
guitar. We have added
alternative readings for
using the 6th string, an
often employed publishing
practice of the period.
The music is edited and
fingered by Erik
Stenstadvold, an
authority on the guitar
repertoire of the early
19th century. There is
also an informative
preface, with full
biographical details and
critical notes.
