SORRY, VOLUME 27 IS SOLD OUT. WE ARE REPRINTING IT NOW.This Volume 27 contains Giuliani's guitar concerto op. 30, in
Diabelli's arrangement for
terz guitar
and piano. There are parts for
guitar and for piano (no score). The guitar part is written in A major
as in the orchestral version and is very similar to it, with some
differences but not big ones (for example it has some additional
material at the beginning). However, the terz guitar is of course a
transposing instrument so it actually sounds in C and the piano part
is written in C.
The three volumes for this concerto in this Tecla series are:
- Volume 25: the version for guitar and
full orchestra, in A. The guitar is a normal guitar (not a terz
guitar).
- Volume 26: the version for guitar and
string quartet, in A (same guitar part as in Volume 25).
- This Volume 27: the arrangement of the concerto which Diabelli
made for terz guitar and
piano. The guitar part here is a terz guitar so although it is
written in A it actually sounds in C and the piano part is in C.
All are in facsimiles of the first editions, parts only, no score.
Giuliani composed three concertos for guitar, opus numbers 30, 36,
and 70. This concerto op. 30 in A is the first and most famous of
them.
First published by Tecla in 1986.
