Opis

The Classical Guitar Companion is a uniquely anthology that encourages students and teachers to create custom curricula for guitar study based on their own strengths and weaknesses.

Recenzje

Oftentimes a new guitar study is accompanied by fanfare proclaiming that a new technical discovery has been made, or some set of magical exercises promising virtuosity have been revealed for the first time. Christopher Berg's Classical Guitar Companion has done the reverse of this by showing that the answers have been in front of us the whole time, with examples spanning over 450 years of lute and guitar repertory.
