Guitar Music of Mauro Giuliani
Italian composer/guitarist, 1781-1829
There are a number of prolific composers from this era.
Many of them studied and lived in Italy, France and elsewhere in Europe.
Giuliani spent a significant amount of time in Vienna. The studies and methods by these composers are quite good material for developing
basic fingerboard skills as well as sight reading skills. The
harmonies tend to be quite basic so elementary musical theory and analysis of
this music is also helpful. Keep in mind that the instruments of the time
were typically much smaller than modern instruments - things that are easily
fingered on a period instrument provide significant challenges on a modern
instrument with a larger fingerboard. Many modern editions provide
suggestions for how to resolve such issues.
