Editorial news

Critical edition of one of the most beautiful works of didactic and recreational character by Fernando Sor (1778-1839), which the title page of the 1831 Paris edition presents as “easy and progressive – carefully fingered and dedicated to Mademoiselle Lira”.

Although designed for private and recreational use, this work is also suitable for concert repertoire due to its fresh and light grace of the room, but it is also very versatile for exercises in conservatories and advanced courses of Music Lyceums.

Large format score, complete with detached parts for the two guitars.
