A unique
view of Llobet, as a
champion and arranger of
Sor. The Sor studies
reproduced in facsimile
are from Llobet's own
library. In an interview
in Barcelona in 1929,
which is reproduced in
full in this edition,
Llobet announced his
intention of preparing a
new edition of the Sor
studies. Judging by the
density of his marking
and copious added and
altered fingering in this
facsimile edition, he
seemed in fact to be
doing just this.
Unfortunately, a new
edition edited by him
never came to fruition!
We have prepared our
facsimile edition of
these later printings of
Simrock editions (a gift
from Erwin
Schwarz-Reiflingen in
1928), carefully
restoring the originals
to make these pages
clearer, so that not only
is everything more
legible, but most
importantly, all of
Llobet´s fingerings and
amendments are clearly
legible. In this volume
dedicated to Sor, we have
re-engraved for inclusion
here all 6 of Llobet's
very fine Sor
transcriptions from La
Guitarra in Argentina,
fingered and arranged by
Llobet.
