Great PriceSchubert: "Arpeggione" Sonata; Giuliani: Guitar Concerto for $7.35
Today's guitar repertoire thrives on transcriptions, and this program makes for fascinating comparison for that very reason. The Giuliani is real guitar music. Williams plays it superbly, of course, and the composer's inspiration in this work is high on charm, with the last two movements consisting of elegantly stylized dances. Schubert's sonata, however, here arranged for guitar and string orchestra, is another matter entirely. The problem is that the music makes no sense at all with a guitar as soloist. The instrument has none of the sustaining qualities of a viola or cello (instruments that take the part of the obsolete arpeggione in modern performances). And while lots of guitar music has been transcribed from piano originals, pitting a guitar version of the original piano part against a full string orchestra completely reverses Schubert's balance of tone, making hash of the musical argument. Don't get me wrong--it's not unpleasant in any way, and it is very well played. Fans of Williams who don't know Schubert's original might not care or notice anything wrong, and so it is to them that this disc can be most strongly recommended. --David Hurwitz and then update cheapest prices immediately.

Where To Buy ItemBrand} Schubert Franz Sonata in a minor Arpeggione D. 821. Viola and Pianoby Milton Katims International Best Quality
Schubert's Arpeggione Sonata in a minor was composed in 1824, when Schubert was completely broke, suffering from syphilis, and frequently lapsing into depression. The arpeggione had been invented the previous year -- basically it was a 6 stringed musical instrument with frets and tuning like a guitar, but it was bowed. By the time the sonata was published in 1871, the arpeggione was no longer around, so the piece has primarily been played on cello and viola. Transcription for these instruments has been particularly tricky, however, due to the difference in range and articulation in the instruments. As a result, this piece is particularly challenging to play on modern 4 string instruments. Despite this, the quality and expressiveness of this sonata certainly makes mastering this work worthwhile.
