Any classical guitar listeners out there?

MasterSprtn117 · 06-06-2008, 11:53 AM

Just wondering if any of the Zuners out there listen to classical guitar?

USMCWarrior · 06-06-2008, 06:24 PM

I not only listen but I play a little too.

You mean like Don Ross, Andy McKee, Antoine Dufour?

Not quite, but they are great guitarists.

I meant more like this, this, or this.

I can play those first two songs, by the way.

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 06:48 AM

Well I have a book with a bunch of classical songs in them and I just go through that sometimes.

MasterSprtn117 · 06-07-2008, 07:53 PM

What's it called?

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 08:03 PM

Solos for Classical Guitar: 135 Repertoire Pieces

Compiled and edited by Fred Sokolow

MasterSprtn117 · 06-07-2008, 08:06 PM

Cool. Do you like it?

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 08:08 PM

Yeah I do. It's pretty sweet. Has a wide range of songs from easy to hard, popular to unknown. I would recommend it.

MasterSprtn117 · 06-07-2008, 08:18 PM

Any widely known composers included in the book, or is it all by Fred Sokolow?

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 08:20 PM

Frederic Chopin, Bach, Franz Schubert, etc. None of it was written by Sokolow, he just put it all in one book.

MasterSprtn117 · 06-07-2008, 08:21 PM

Whoa, whoa, CHOPIN? I really want to learn some of his songs on guitar. Is it transcribed from piano?

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 08:25 PM

It probably is, but some of his songs aren't really that hard.

MasterSprtn117 · 06-07-2008, 08:27 PM

Is it a simplified version?

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 08:31 PM

I don't think so. Ah! From the Preface:

"I have included several transcriptions of well-loved pieces not usually associated with or played on the guitar."

MasterSprtn117 · 06-08-2008, 05:55 AM

Interesting...I'll have to take a look at it next time I'm at the music store since it seem's there is no list of what songs are in it online.
