Variations On A Catalan
Folksong (Op.
25) were written by
John W. Duarte
for solo Guitar. They
were based on the Spanish
folk melody Canco Del
Llabre, one of the
most popular Catalan folk
tunes to have survived to
this day.
John
W. Duarte
(1919-2004) was a British
guitarist, composer, and
music journalist. Having
received a degree in
Chemistry, his
fascination with the
endless possibilities of
the Guitar caused him to
abandon science in favour
of music. Despite having
never formally studied
music, he is regarded as
one of the foremost
composers for Guitar of
the 20th century.
