This recording presents a balanced combination of tradition and modernity. It features an essential repertoire from the first half of the 20th century, a period that ushered in one of the golden ages of the guitar.

Traditional transcriptions and the use of popular music were combined with sophisticated and innovative forms, written for an instrument that composers were themselves discovering as they wrote for it.

Following the dissemination of many of these works, the guitar would never be the same again.
