Synopsis
Product Description
One of Britain s foremost guitarists, Raymond Burley presents a well-chosen collection of Fernando Sor s best compositions. The marvellous reviews garnered by this eloquent CD and performer reveal the reasons that this one is a must-have recording. The first piece, Ye Banks and Braes, is Sor s delightful setting of a Scottish folk song. The composer is renowned for his Variations, Op. 9, on a theme from The Magic Flute and here arranges six airs from the same opera. Fantasie Elégiaque, Op. 59, is one of Sor s most heartfelt statements. Introduction and Variations on Marlbroug is based on a French marching song, known as For He s a Jolly Good Fellow. Andante largo Op. 5, no. 5 is from Six Petites Pièces requires a sure mastery of the guitar s subtleties. Fantasie, Op 7 is one of Sor s finest works and considered one of his outstanding masterpieces.
