These ‘Concert Studies’ bring the curtain down on a series of pedagogical –but not only– books for the guitar which began with ‘Recital 1’ through ‘10’. They draw together the ‘foundations’ of the art of guitar playing and the basic teachings of the great pedagogues who exalted the guitar to its present status as an instrument. They begin further back in time with composers such as F. Sor and F. Carulli, and conclude with more modern composers such as J. Sagreras and A. Barrios.
The title of the collection (‘Concert Studies’) was not chosen randomly. The majority of the studies encountered here are melodic in character and can therefore be presented as concert pieces. They remain, however, primarily studies and first and foremost their role is a pedagogical one.
The studies have been arranged with respect to their degree of difficulty taking students from Grade 1 through to Grade 8/DipRSM. For this reason, the studies of one particular composer may appear in more than one volume on account of the studies’ increasing level of difficulty.
It is, however, impossible to include all of the selected composers’ studies in this collection. Those figuring here are they which, in our opinion, are musically the most interesting and the most useful from a pedagogical point of view.
Every attempt has been made to ensure that the fingerings for both the left as well as the right hand are as simple and as easy to comprehend as possible.
In conclusion, we would like to remind fellow guitarists of the importance attached to the short dash which appears before certain numbers in the left hand fingering (e.g. – 3). This dash indicates that the finger must not be lifted off the string, but rather that it must slide from the previous note to the next thus ensuring a legato effect and continuity, two factors which are essential in the interpretation
of these pieces.
