Dionisio Aguado: Guitar Music
Lorenzo Micheli
Dionisio Aguado occupies a prominent position among the great guitarists of the nineteenth century, but the corpus of his works has only recently become the subject of careful study by specialists and musicologists. This is surprising, since guitarists have always had a great affection for Aguado, particularly because of his technical methods. However, these somehow managed to overshadow Aguado's concert pieces: a situation this record is intended to rectify.
