{"product_id":"sor-giglio-19th-century-guitar","title":"Sor \/ Giglio- 19th Century Guitar (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe acclaimed Italian guitarist Gianluigi Giglio makes his debut on SOMM Recordings with The 19th Century Guitar, a scintillating recital of music by Fernando Sor, a pioneering champion of the guitar in the vanguard of raising it's profile out of the tavern and into the concert hall. Giglio's wide-ranging recital explores Sor's innate feeling for the guitar and charts the increasing demands he placed on the instrument in a body of work that transformed it's standing with public and pundits alike. From the early Op. 9 masterpiece that charted a new and expressive landscape for the guitar - Introduction and Variations on a Theme by Mozart - to the late Elegiac Fantasy (Op. 59) with it's leanings towards newly-emerging Romanticism, this is a textbook display of the instrument's many abilities given eloquent voice by a master guitarist. Other notable pieces include the Introduction and Variations on 'Malbrough s'en va-t-en guerre' (Op. 28), a deliciously knowing exercise in re-creating 18th-century style, the possibly unique programmatic caprice Le calme (Op. 50) and the no less singular étude The movement of a religious prayer from the Op. 31 24 Progressive Lessons for Beginners which is distinguished by it's beautiful sense of polyphony. Gianluigi Giglio plays a guitar made by the noted Parisian luthier René Lacôte in Paris in 1834. SOMM's previous recordings of Fernando Sor include Eros Roselli's recital Studies for Guitar (SOMMCD 021) and 12 Seguidillas performed by Craig Ogden on a disc of Spanish Songs featuring soprano Patricia Rozario (SOMMCD 078).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction \u0026amp;amp; Variations On \u0026amp;quot;Malbrough S\u0026amp;#39;en Va-T-En Guerre\u0026amp;quot;, Op. 28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLes Folies D\u0026amp;#39;espagne \u0026amp;amp; Minuet, Op. 15a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction \u0026amp;amp; Variations On A Theme By Mozart, Op. 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy Fantasy In A Minor, Op. 58\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 Bagatelles, Op. 43 \u0026amp;quot;Mes Ennuis\u0026amp;quot;: No. 3, Cantabile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 Bagatelles, Op. 43 \u0026amp;quot;Mes Ennuis\u0026amp;quot;: No. 5, Andante\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElegiac Fantasy In E Major, Op. 59: Ia.
