Fernando Sor: 6 Valses, Op. 44 bis

This recording grew out of my admiration for the music of Spanish guitar virtuoso Fernando Sor (17781839). Here are recordings of the six valses of Sors Op. 44 bis. (Through the miracle of overdubbing, I play both parts. ) Although Sor intended these as easy teaching pieces, theyre also surprisingly rich studies in musicianship. I hope you enjoy hearing them as much as I enjoyed playing them. If youre interested, Ive written a series of short essays on each of these recordings.
