Masahiro Masuda - Sonata Iii Works By Fernando Sor - Japan CDDescription: The third work in guitarist Masahiro Masuda's "Sonata" series is a collection of sonatas by Fernando Sor (1778 1839), who was called the "Beethoven of the guitar" and left a significant mark in the history of guitar music. The guitar is a 19th century Petitjean instrument. With his excellent playing technique and rich musicality, this is a piece that brings out the full appeal of the original 19th century guitar. (C)RS
