This volume is a real pleasure: fifty easy pieces spanning five centuries just waiting to be discovered, in standard musical notation and tablature. Simple folk pieces are included alongside well-known classics by Carulli, Paganini, Sor and Tárrega. Melodies by celebrated masters such as Bach, Handel, Mozart and Vivaldi feature here as well, though.There is information, too, on the origins and individual characteristics of each piece. The accompanying CD for listening and playing along to makes the whole thing even more fun!
