Civil War
Suite for Classical
Guitar is a
collection of ten Civil
War-era songs arranged in
standard notation for the
advanced solo classical
guitarist. The suite
includes music from the
Confederacy and the
Union, along with
soldier's songs, parlor
songs, and an African
American spiritual. The
sequencing of the pieces
is designed to create a
musical narrative, with
songs grouped in a manner
that shows various
perspectives of the war
before ultimately
celebrating Union
victory. Throughout the
suite, extensive passages
feature delightful
special effects that
emulate period
instruments such as the
banjo, snare drum, and
fiddle. Includes access
to online
audio.
