A collection of 28 Ernesto Nazareth compositions expertly transcribed for classic guitar solo. One of the major difficulties in trying to arrange Ernesto Nazareth?s themes for any instrument but the piano is to separatethe melodic line from its accompaniment: both are so closely together (that is one of the strongest characteristics of his pianistic style of composition) that it becomes almost impossible to treat one of the features disregardingthe other. If one did that the result would be only a pale and incomplete portrait of what was intended by the composer. That thought has guided us in the making of this book. In spite of the huge obstacles that resulted from thetransposition of a piece originally written for the piano a very rich instrument regarding the expressive recourses to the more 'modest' guitar we always kept in mind our principal intention: to preserve at the most all themelodic dialogues of the scores in special the ones between the melody and the bass line both the elements that form the soul of Nazareth?s compositions. We obviously had to do some changes. Thus for instance in somearrangements it was necessary to transpose the original key to a more appropriate one (at the guitar view-point of course). Some phrases or fragments had also to be written an octave higher or lower (that can be perfectlyunderstandable if we consider the very wide melodic range of the piano and the extensive way with which Nazareth uses it). Needless to say that all those recourses were used only when it has been strictly necessary. Despite thefact that those 28 pieces are only a little portion of Nazareth?s work this group of arrangements represents a good and representative panel. Among them there are some of Nazareth?s greatest hits ('Apanhei-te Cavaquinho' 'Odeon' 'Brejeiro' 'Ameno Resedá' etc.) as well as other not so known compositions but no less beautiful and important. Listening to those pieces one can observe the compositional talent of Nazareth and his incredible

A staple of the serious Guitar reportoire Sor's Variations On A Theme Of Mozart is both beautiful to listen to and rewarding to play. Mozart's contribution is relatively minor Sor having only made use of the basic melody from the theme of The Magic Flute as the basis of the piece; the work as a whole has to be attributed to Sor. It is testament not only to Sor's groundbreaking mastery of his own instrument but also to his general musical genious; this with the brilliant simplicity and familiarity of a Mozart melody blended in.

by Antonio Ongarello. Learn and play 12 Jazz Standards. When I decided to introduce some of the best jazz Standards my desire was to propose them in a ?live? version i.e. how I?m used to play them. While keeping quite adherent to the originals me-lody and harmony have undergone a rearrangement process according to praxis and styles typical of great Jazz guitar Masters. I think that playing and studying these versions will be pleasant and bene-ficial for all guitarists who are in love with good music and their instrument. My hope is that these examples will also encourage you to create personal interpretations of these or others Themes.

Complete Warm-Up for Classical Guitar contains short and concise exercises for use in a warm-up before practice or performance and for general technical advancement. The book is divided into foursections: I Arpeggios II Scales III Tremolo and IV Slurs. Each section contains a description of the exercises and general instructions on how to play them. The exercises are intended for guitarists who are looking for a simplewarm-up that does not require learning many complicated Etudes exercises or routines. In this book only one Etude is used for a variety of arpeggio and tremolo patterns. The scale warm-ups are based on a two-octave one-position scale that is shifted up and down the fretboard and a simple one-position chromatic scale. The pull-off and hammer-on slurs are combined into one exercise to save time. This same routine when practised with themetronome gradually increasing the tempo can also double for technical work. With the exception of one chromatic scale exercise the rest are on closed strings. Besides being able to move the scale up and down the fretboard thefirst finger can be barred. This will increase the left hand difficulty and improve the left hand position and strength.There is close to an hour's worth of material if all the exercises are played with all of theirvariations at different tempos. Not everything needs to be played everyday so the warm-up session can be as long as desired or as short as time allows.

For Acoustic Guitar-During the course of my teaching piano and guitar I have not come across another book that took these classic masterpieces and arranged them for the beginner guitar student. There is an amazing amount of literature like this forthe piano but not for the guitar. My goal with this book is to fill this void in the guitar literature. I chose compositions that the young guitar student would most likely have heard before and thus used familiar melodies. Ithen made easy arrangements of them mostly using the top four strings simple chords and fingerings. The right hand fingering is not indicated because I used the general rule of thumb: a = 1st string m = 2nd string i = 3rdstring p = 4th 5th and 6th strings.” All 12 solos are scored in notation and tablature.
