Title Note

There is very little classical music specifically written for guitar, its repertoire consisting mostly of arrangements. However, Mauro Giuliani, known as the "Paganini of the Guitar," left a beautiful body of work for this neglected instrument. Written at the start of the 19th Century, they blend Italian style with Austrian keyboard technique.

This fascinating fusion stems from the Italian composer's move to Vienna early in his career. Whereas Italy was lacking in opportunity, Austrians admired Giuliani's new sound. His Sonata in C, with its overtly piano-styled texture, won acclaim throughout the music community. Ingenious in the depth of its structure, it set Giuliani's career on fire. His most popular piece, the Grande Ouverture in A, shares similar patterns.

This recording highlights the joy and festive nature of Giuliani's work. Yet even as its emotions peak, one cannot help but marvel at the refined structure. Guitarist David Russell's technique is exceptionally smooth, benefiting from Giuliani's understanding of the instrument's limits. Russell's authoritative touch is firm, yet delicate. It is a world class recording of exceptional compositions
