Hmm.. interesting piece. Difficult from a technical standpoint, but man there is really nothing interesting happening musically here. In the sense of 'overture' I suppose it sets the stage in that right. As its own musical work this feels like the giuliani era equivalent of going to a guitar store and playing all the cool riffs you know just jumbled together. So very trite harmonically. Even the development section was fairly tame.
Beautiful piece very well done! 40 years ago in the library at school i d listen to Julian Bream playing this and Guiliani s Sonata in C along w with Sor s Grand solo.
I'm trying to learn this at the moment. Can anyone explain why the first chord of the second bar is marked 8va but on every recording I've heard it just seems like everyone just ignores it? It's actually written in several places but I can't tell what it's supposed to mean.
