Dionisio Aguado - Introduction and Rondo no. 2 Op. 2

Поделиться
HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
  • Dionisio Aguado (1784 - 1849)
    The theme of this Rondo bears a striking resemblance to Beethoven's famous "Pathetique" Sonata, Op. 13 no. 8. Given that this piece was published in the year of Beethoven's death (1827), perhaps we can call it a "tribute". However, the dedication is to Aguado's contemporary, François de Fossa.
    Recorded March 6th, 2017 in Toronto.
    Guitar by Jeff Sigurdson (Friederich Model)

    Hello Drew, I am an old rock guitarist from the 70s. I have decided to try my hand at classical guitar and when I see and hear you play it blows my mind. That someone can play the guitar this perfectly and beautifully. Thank you for your talent and bringing this to the public to experience what the highest level of talent and performance can be. You are truly amazing. Thank you.

      Hey, Jack. I started with a country background and played that way for years, until a friend bought Bouree in Em tabs for me. I've been playing classical for 20 yrs now. We both can now testify to the beauty of classical 👍

    I think this is an exceptional performance: very assured, so that the elegance of Aguado's early romantic style isn't subsumed to the considerable virtuosity needed to play this difficult piece. The sound production is clean, nuanced and well phrased. I think it compares favorably to Bream's version on his DVD "Guitarra"
