For more than a century guitarists have been irresistibly drawn to Bach's remarkable cello suites. Here, for the first time, are thefirst four in the easiest and most resonant guitar keys. Suites I-IV must be transposed to work on the guitar, whereas Suite V is always played in A minor, in Bach's own lute version, and the equally demanding Suite VI can only be played in its original key of D. By adding as little as possible, these arrangements preserve the integrity of the originals, in which melody, bass and harmony are woven effortlessly into a single fabric. They also, crucially, offer the guitarist Bach at a lower level of difficulty than his music for lute or unaccompanied violin. Another unique feature is the inclusion of optional 'improvised' divisions - suggestions for the additional ornamentation of passages to reflect typical 18th-century performance practice. This is an essential addition to any guitarist's library with selected movements featured in the 2009 ABRSM guitar syllabus (Grades 5-8). This publication beats the others hands down; no contest. I can't see me needing any other edition of these four suites. They are that good. Buy with confidence. Classical Guitar.

The Suite for guitar aims to blend tradition and modernity through the use of a language with a neobaroque imprint.The canonical utilization of the fixed dances of the Suite (Allemande, Courante, Sarabande and Gigue preceded by an introductory Prelude) serves as a clear reference to the corresponding Baroque model characterized by alternation between slow and fast movements. The style, on the other hand, appears to be moderately dissonant, yet still focused on a well-defined tonal framework. A personal use of both dissonances and modulations is intended to enhance the auditory experience while maintaining a strong connection to a specific tonal center (E), which serves as a stable reference point in the organization of the musical material.La Suite pour guitare vise à mêler tradition et modernité à travers lâutilisation dâun langage à lâempreinte néobaroque.Lâutilisation canonique des « danses fixes » de la Suite (Allemande, Courante, Sarabande et Gigue précédées dâun Prélude introductif) sert de référence claire au modèle baroque correspondant caractérisé par une alternance entre mouvements lents et rapides.Le style, en revanche, semble modérément dissonant, tout en restant centré sur une structure tonale bien définie. Une utilisation personnelle des dissonances et des modulations vise à améliorer lâexpérience auditive tout en maintenant une forte connexion à un centre tonal spécifique (E), qui sert de point de référence stable dans lâorganisation du matériau musical.

Thanks to Stefano Grondona, this unknown and unedited transcription by Tárrega in G major of Albéniz' Cádiz, known widely as the Célebre Serenata Española has just been identified in a manuscript copied by Miguel Llobet, probably while he was still Tárrega's pupil. This beautiful and subtle transcription is not overcomplicated to play, Tárrega did not try to do everything, as some later transcribers have attempted to do. The melody sings and the accompaniment is subtly always there. The tuning with 5th string to G, and 6th to D, is no hindrance - on the contrary it is a boon. We are not aware of any published version of this work in G major, and this particular version has never been published until now. We are delighted to make it available for the first time in a new scholarly edition prepared from Llobet's meticulously accurate manuscript, a copy of which is reproduced in the edition.
