Early Classical Guitar Recordings | A Look At Expression & Interpretation In The Early 1900’s


Kevin Sherwin shares insights from his research into early recordings of the classical guitar. The selected musical samples from the early 1900’s show the difference between what the score communicates and how modern guitarists often believe the music should sound. They also give us a sense of how composers including Barrios and Llobet interpreted their own works.

Introduction: The musical score and historical sound recordings
Theme 1: Tempo Rubato (Stell Anderson and Maria Luisa Anido)
Theme 2: Unequal Notes (Julio Oyanguren and Vincente Gomez)
Theme 3: Composers playing their own music (Barrios and Llobet)
Conclusion: New Perspectives for Today

  • I can see this video is from 4 years ago already. I'm glad I came across it. YouTube is great that way. They keep feeding you associated material according to your history and preferences. A very interesting video. I hope you've made more of them since you made this one, 4 years ago. Historical material is so very important to the musician. Thank you.

  • Very interesting, more please, including more complete performances. I like that you use a script, it's so much better for getting information across. There are a few good unscripted videos but most of us do better with a script.
