Summary of This Book
This collection offers eleven solos carefully transcribed for mandolin, to (re)discover the classical repertoire closely adapted to the instrument. The selected works highlight major composers such as Corelli, Handel, Telemann, and Bach, along with other notable names from the repertoire. Together, they provide an excellent foundation for working on the style, articulation, and rhythmic precision characteristic of classical music.
Each piece is presented in standard notation and tablature. This dual notation offers real reading comfort: the standard notation helps understand the music (rhythm, phrasing, intention), while the tablature facilitates navigation on the fingerboard (positions, shifts, transitions). This is a valuable asset for saving time in sight-reading, securing fingerings, and approaching technical passages methodically.
Designed for multiple levels, this book supports both the progressing mandolinist and the more experienced musician wishing to enrich their solo repertoire. It develops essential skills: intonation and placement, sound control, smooth position changes, as well as musicality (phrase breathing, dynamics, nuance). An indispensable resource for developing a solid and stylistically coherent interpretation of classical pieces adapted for mandolin.
