Composing for the Guitar (Part 2)
In my previous post I mentioned some of the critical things one needs to consider when composing for the guitar. I detailed the voicing on the piano that are crucial to know for composing well for the Guitar.
I thought in this post I would simply detail some of the most famous compositions in the Guitar’s repertoire. They highlight 3 different eras of literature (baroque, classical, and romantic)
Additionally I highly recommend you spend some time listening to some great performers/composers of the classical guitar.
These can include John Williams, David Russell, Andres Segovia, Manuel Barrueco
Some excellent technical resources can be found at www.delcamp.net, and www.imslp.org
