Summary of This Book
This collection brings together a selection of some of the most popular classical pieces, specially adapted for classical guitar. It features instantly recognizable themes (for example "Ode To Joy," "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik," the "Largo" from The Four Seasons Winter, "Blue Danube Waltz"), as well as essential guitar pieces like "Asturias-Leyenda," "Granada," "Recuerdos de la Alhambra," and "Gran Vals." The collection covers a wide variety of characters: lyrical melodies, dances, marches, and symphonic themes-ideal for enriching concert repertoire, preparing for auditions, or simply enjoying at home.
In the spirit of modern pedagogical collections, everything is designed for smooth handling: the dual presentation in standard notation and tablature facilitates learning (reading, fingerings, position awareness), while the demonstration audio helps build a musical interpretation (articulation, dynamics, phrase breathing). Compiled and arranged by English classical guitarist Bridget Mermikides, these arrangements emphasize musicality and playability, aiming to capture the spirit of the original works while remaining natural under the fingers. An excellent choice to work on tone, expression, and style, with a prestigious and motivating repertoire.
