En forma de concierto italiano. Composed by Domenico Cimarosa. Sheet music. Performance score. MDS (Music Distribution Services) #BBA 4024. Published by MDS (Music Distribution Services) (M7.BBA-4024).

The Cimarosa Sonatas represent a chest of melodic ideas in which the Neapolitan universe of contrasts takes shape, where freshness sometimes alternates tender melancholy and heartfelt sadness that have always been the counterpart in the culture of that city. Domenico Cimarosa was one of the most prominent opera composers of the late 18th century. He is a transitional figure between the generation of classical operas of the second half of the 18th century (e.g., Gluck and Mozart), and the later generation of early 19th century Italian composers such as Rossini and Donizetti. The work of Jorge Martínez Zárate as a composer and transcriber is vast, he has written original works for one and two guitars and has made more than a thousand transcriptions, a large number of them have been published in Argentina and also in the United States, France and Italy.

Composed by A. Soler/L. Palomo. Published by Editorial de Musica Boileau (BO.B.3649).

Padre Antonio Soler is the most important Spanish composer of keyboard instruments of the XVIII century. Born in Olot he was baptized in 1729 and died in El Escorial in 1787. As a young boy he entered the Escolania of Montserrat, where he studied composition and organ, coinciding at the same monastery with the also Spanish composer of that time, Fernando Sor. Padre Soler spent great part of his life in El Escorial as chapel master and organist and met in Madrid Italian composer Domenico Scarlatti with whom he developped a deep friendship inspired on mutual admiration.

In spite of the similar styles of both composers the fluid inspiration of Padre Soler excels for his own personality, definitely influenced by Spanish roots. Furthermore, I ask myself if the fact of being at the same monastery of Montserrat with guitarist composer Fernando Sor didn't play an important role in the future development of Padre Soler's style.

I have transcribed for two guitars these three sonatas in the hope that also the guitarists can enjoy playing these little jewels, truly musical delights, that Padre Antonio Soler left for us.

Composed by Louise Farrenc. Arranged by Eddie Healy. Score and parts. Les Productions d'OZ #DZ 4311. Published by Les Productions d'OZ (DZ.DZ-4311).

Loui se Farrenc was a profoundly influential French composer, performer, professor, and author. Though she would ultimately become quite a sought-after performer, her potential as a composer was recognized quite early on. Women were not permitted to enroll in conventional composition classes at the Conservatoire de Paris at the time, but, she did receive private lessons from Anton Reicha, the professor of composition there. Years later she would receive a permanent appointment as Professor of Piano at the same institution, a position she held for thirty years. She was the only woman during the 19th century to bear that title.
Her piano etudes possess pedagogical value as well as great beauty and character. These works lend themselves quite well to the guitar duo setting. While I have rendered all of Farrenc’s melodies quite faithfully, I have taken liberties with the accompaniments in order to make them more idiomatic to the guitar. Likewise, many of the effects of which the guitar is capable have been brought to bear in ways that deviate from the original intent of the etude. Alternatively, the challenges that some of these etudes were meant to address for the piano student are amplified by this adaptation. For example, etude 5 is intended to enable the piano student to improve the coordination between their left and right hands. It certainly presents a challenge in that regard to the guitar duo!
These selections are entirely suitable for guitarists with limited experience, though they could, of course, be beautifully realized by players with a great deal more experience as well.

Louise Farrenc était une compositrice, interprète, professeur et auteure française profondément influente. Même si elle deviendra finalement une interprète très recherchée, son potentiel en tant que compositrice est reconnu très tôt. Les femmes n'étaient pas autorisées à s'inscrire aux cours de composition conventionnels au Conservatoire de Paris à l'époque, mais elle recevait des cours particuliers d'Anton Reicha, le professeur de composition du Conservatoire de Paris. Des années plus tard, elle recevra un poste permanent de professeur de piano dans la même institution, poste qu'elle occupera pendant trente ans. Elle était la seule femme au XIXe siècle à porter ce titre.
Ses études pour piano possèdent une valeur pédagogique ainsi qu'une grande beauté et un grand caractère. Ces œuvres se prêtent assez bien au montage en duo de guitares. Même si j’ai rendu assez fidèlement toutes les mélodies de Farrenc, j’ai pris des libertés avec les accompagnements afin de les rendre plus idiomatiques à la guitare. De même, de nombreux effets dont la guitare est capable ont été mis en œuvre d’une manière qui s’écart e de l’intention originale de l’étude . Alternativement, les défis que certaines de ces études étaient censées relever pour l'étudiant en piano sont amplifiés par cette adaptation. Par exemple, l'étude 5 est destinée à permettre à l'élève de piano d'améliorer la coordination entre ses mains gauche et droite. Cela représente certainement un défi à cet égard pour le duo de guitares !
Ces sélections conviennent parfaitement aux guitaristes ayant une expérience limitée, même si elles pourraient bien sûr également être magnifiquement réalisées par des musiciens beaucoup plus expérimenté s.

The editors of the New Karl Scheit Guitar Edition, guitarists all, have unearthed a rare gem in Marella's Sonata. Having made his mark as an accomplished violinist in the 18th century scene of Paris and Dublin, Marella relocated to London to continue his career, becoming also a teacher of guitar and composer of study volumes for that instrument. The Sonata in La Maggiore is taken from a second volume of pieces dating from 1762, and consists of three movements - Andantino, Largo, and Menuetto a theme and five variations). For intermediate to advanced performers.

Composed by Various. Score and parts. Les Productions d'OZ #DZ 4120. Published by Les Productions d'OZ (DZ.DZ-4120).

ISBN 9782898520372.

This fourth booklet is dedicated to ensemble playing through five trios and three quartets of various styles (tango, ballad, rock, etc.) appropriate for the end of primary school with a few years of experience and the beginning of secondary school. Some pieces are written in a homorhythmic manner and can constitute an introduction to ensemble music, while others are rather polyrhythmic. They can constitute a first contact with the following techniques and effects: staccato, pizzicato, accent, louré, natural harmonic, percussion or crossed strings. This volume is therefore intended for guitarists who already know the notes in first position. Two pieces include a more advanced part with an introduction to playing in 5th position. These are short pieces that do not present technical challenges other than those allowing you to achieve the effects and play expressively.

You will find in the scores indications of nuances, timbre, attack and fingerings which constitute suggestions for work and not prescriptions. Teachers and students are therefore invited to make interpretation choices different from those proposed or to try to convincingly render those already written.

The pieces were composed or arranged by UQAM music education students as part of a course aimed at equipping musicians for teaching guitar in the school system. Many of them are musicians from different backgrounds (composition, performance, world music, etc.), which explains the creativity found in the pieces. All the pieces have been the subject of an audio recording available on the Productions d’Oz website and on YouTube. Search for À vos guitares, prêt, joue! Vol. 4.

Ce quatrième cahier est consacré au jeu en ensemble grâce à cinq trios et trois quatuors de styles variés (tango, ballade, rock…) appropriés pour la fin du primaire avec quelques années d’expér ience et le début du secondaire. Certaines pièces sont écrites de manière homorythmique et peuvent constituer une initiation à la musique d’ensemble, alors que d’autres sont plutôt polyrythmiques. Elles peuvent constituer un premier contact avec les techniques et effets suivants : staccato, pizzicato, accent, louré, harmonique naturelle, percussion ou cordes croisées. Ce volume s’adresse donc aux guitaristes qui connaissent déjà les notes en première position. Deux pièces comportent une partie plus avancée avec une initiation au jeu en Ve position. Ce sont des pièces courtes qui ne présentent pas de défis techniques outre ceux permettant de réaliser les effets et de jouer de manière expressive.

Vous trouverez dans les partitions des indications de nuances, de timbre, d’attaque et de doigtés qui constituent des suggestions de travail et non des prescriptions. Ainsi, les enseignants et les élèves sont invités à faire des choix d’interprÃà ‚©tation différents de ceux qui sont proposés ou à tenter de rendre de manière convaincante ceux déjà écrits.

Les pièces ont été composées ou arrangées par des étudiants en enseignement de la musique de l’UQAM dans le cadre d’un cours qui vise à outiller les musiciens pour l’enseignement de la guitare dans le système scolaire. Beaucoup d’entre eux sont des musiciens provenant d’horizons différents (composition, interprétation, musique du monde, etc.) ce qui explique la créativité que l’on retrouve dans les pièces. Toutes les pièces ont fait l’objet d’un enregistrement audio disponible sur le site des Productions d’Oz et sur YouTube. Recherchez À vos guitares, prêts, jouez! Vol. 4.
