Hello everyone,

I have just added string damping indications to the scores of the 20 Sor studies selected by Andrés Segovia. My edition takes the same 20 studies in the same order, but without the changes that Segovia made to Sor's studies purely for copyright purposes. The reason for these changes was that if an arranger doesn't change anything, he cannot claim copyright fees - logical, but perverse. Thus Segovia rewrote entire passages to put his stamp on them and justify his claim for copyright fees on the sale of these editions.

For the same reasons Miguel Llobet changed what Carcassi had written when he published the latter's 25 studies.

It is in part to do justice to Sor and Carcassi and also to a good many other composers that I created this site where you can download scores faithful to the composers' original editions.

You can download Sor's 20 studies and Carcassi's 25 studies in the forum "Masterpieces of the repertoire - levels D08 to D10".

Please let me know if you come across any mistakes in notation or fingering.

Hello everyone,
The school holidays are here,
I have more time to spare than usual,
so I'm taking the opportunity to improve and enrich volume D 02.

Additions to volume D02:
- a definition of the symbols used, page 4.
- the most important dampings are indicated for each work.
- alternative patterns for practising arpeggios, page 23.
- 3 Lessons by Aguado, page 27.
- 4 Duos by Küffner, pages 29, 32, 39 and 60.
- a little known Chaconne by Nicolas Derosiers, page 31, with the facsimile, which is useful for practising chords.
- an Allegretto by Carulli, page 43.
- I have reorganised the 36 technical exercises. The titles are displayed in 4 languages, French, Italian, English and Spanish. The exercises are numbered, to simplify the "judgements" written up by teachers on their students at the end of the course. It is quicker to write "ex 12" than "scale of F major page 76".

Gradually, over several months or years, I'll improve the other volumes of the forum.

Whether you are a teacher or a student, I invite your reactions, with your ideas and criticisms on volume D02.

Bye for now,
Jean-François

Bonjour Jean-François,

What energy! Quelle énergie!

"Damp the preceding note" —this is particularly useful for clumsy guitarists like me.

"Stopper la résonance de la note précédente"—c'est particulièrement utile pour les guitaristes maladroite comme moi,

First thing, I find it nearly perfect and very useful. But I would find it better if facsimiles and the sheet music would be on separate pages. I don't know what to do with facsimiles and ignore them, but if there are facimiles and sheet on the single page, you can't print only the sheet music, so there is some paper and ink wasted. Just my opinion.
Also it would be very very great, if in the PDF or on the forum there would be some short comments for pieces, especially for people, who aren't guided by a teacher - what can be done wrong, what should be emphasized etc.
But it is of course great as it is now.

je comprends, mais je préfère garder le facsimilé avec la musique. I understand, but I prefer to keep the facsimile with the music.

... Also it would be very very great, if in the PDF or on the forum there would be some short comments for pieces, especially for people, who aren't guided by a teacher - what can be done wrong, what should be emphasized etc.

oui, c'est une très bonne idée, mais ce travail prendra du temps. yes, it is an very good idea, but this work will take time

But it is of course great as it is now.

A possible error. In the table of contents (page 1), La Tarentela is attributed to Gaspar Sanz but the page, (page 43) says it is by Ferinando Carrulli. The error repeats on page 86 in the catalogue.

Otherwise

[Jean-François Delcamp]

Thank you BugDog,
La Tarentela by Gaspar Sanz
