Schubert: Sonata Arpeggione & Giuliani: Concerto for Guitar and String Orchestra, Op. 30
Release Date: April 27, 1999 SK63385 CD Album John Williams, the world's most popular classical guitarist, records on a period guitar for the first time in this new recording of Giuliani's Guitar Concerto in A Major, coupled with Williams' first-ever recording of Schubert's beautiful Sonata in A minor. Guitar fans from all genres have a deep appreciation for John's unparalleled skill and artistry. This disc will be of special interest to early music fans -- Williams plays on a guitar made by Gaetano Guadagnini in 1814 for his first recording on an early instrument. This release also marks a rare collaboration between Williams and the acclaimed Australian Chamber Orchestra. This is lovely, melodic guitar music, rarely performed and beautifully executed. |
