About The Composers（古典时期的吉他作曲家）-续　　
　　Aguado's compositions were well received in Paris, but affection for his homeland drew him back to Madrid in late 1838 where he remained until his death.
　　Apart from didactic works Aguado published collections of Andantes, Waltzes, Minuets etc., as well as works of a national character such as his Fandango Opus 16.
　　The Neapolitan Ferdinando Carulli (1770-1841) was essentially a self-taught guitarist who achieved celebrity as a performer. At about the age of thirty-eight he settled in Paris, where his virtuoso capacity soon won him a devoted following of students and admirers. His method became a standard work, and was followed by numerous further publications totaling eventually more than three hundred and fifty.
　　He was in no sense a musician of the level of Sor or Giuliani, and yet his success seems undeniable. He had the ability to write simple music within the capacity of the average amateur, and this ensured a ready reception of his work by the leading publishers.
　　In addition to a profusion of short solo works, Carulli wrote Sonatas for one and two guitars, numerous themes and variations, concertos with small orchestra, and a number of curious programmatic pieces interspersed with narrative text-The Troops Begin to Embark, The Storm Rages, and so on.
　　Carulli's unique position was somewhat challenged by the arrival in Paris of his younger compatriot Matteo Carcassi (1792-1853). The latter had acquired a wide reputation as a touring virtuoso, and a personal friendship with the publisher Meissonier probably helped to introduce his compositions to the Parisian public. Possessing the same gift for simplicity, Carcassi added to this a stronger melodic gift than Carulli and a more imaginative use of the higher positions of the instrument. He also favored the operatic fantasia, arrangements of popular melodies from William Tell, Fra Diavolo and other standards of the time.
　　Two guitarists of humbler abilities entered the publishing world, and both achieved considerable success. In Vienna, Anton Diabelli (1781 - 1858) established a position as a popular teacher of the piano and guitar, and in 1818 went into partnership with the publisher Peter Cappi to form the firm of Cappi and Diabelli. By 1824 he was in a position to buy out his partner and continue as sole proprietor. He then became Schubert's publisher, and moved in the most distinguished musical circles. Perhaps his greatest fame is derived from the thirty-three variations that Beethoven wrote on a waltz of his composition. His numerous works for solo guitar were primarily directed at amateurs, and are less interesting on the whole than the guitar duets and the small chamber works where his musical abilities are more apparent.
