  Looking for classical guitar sheet music/shops in London         


Author: Cantemaza

Hello,

I am going to London for a few days at the end of February (26- March
2)and I like to look for classical guitar sheet music when I travel.
Sure, you can get just about anything online but the thrill of finding
a piece I haven't seen before or a collection is exciting. Any
recommendations for where I can look or classical guitar shops in
general? Any performances taking place? I am a Renaissance and
Baroque (Weiss all the way!!) guy. Thanks.

Does the BWV 539 verion attach a prelude to the fugue? When I saw Jorge
Caballero, he played the piece, and it began with a wonderful prelude that
seemed more guitaristic than the Adagio from the Violin Sonata. I was so
blown away by his rendition of Bach's Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue, that I
forgot to ask him about the Prelude when I met him!

Nicely done. Your sense of pacing is very good. If you want
a suggestion: see if you can work more vibrato into this--
particularly on the single line passages. You certainly have
both the chops and the ear to do this well.

I listened to your performance before shutting down my
computer for the night. It was a very pleasant way to end
the day.

Very nice, Gary. Beautiful, in fact. I hate you.
