〖The Classical Guitar(古典时期吉他音乐)〗　　
About The Composers（古典时期的吉他作曲家）-续
　　Antoine Meissonier (1783-18?) had already established a name as a player and teacher when in 1814 he founded the publishing company which successfully produced many guitar works including those of Carcassi. His simple compositions for solo guitar show a certain taste and elegance and are suitable for beginners.
　　Luigi Legnani (1790-1877) was born in Ferrara, Italy, and gained early musical experience with the opera in Ravenna. After a highly successful performance as a guitar soloist in Milan in 1819, his career was established and he toured Europe extensively. In Madrid the well-known music historian Mariano Soriano Fuertes wrote of one his concerts: "The Italian guitar virtuoso, Senor Luigi Legnani, played fantasias and brilliant variations with the full orchestra, and solos of his own composition. He displayed a most remarkable agility of execution and produced a tone of infinite depth and rare singing beauty, particularly in his cantabile on the bass strings. He was called again and again after he had already repeated his programme."
　　Legnani toured on a number of occasions with Paganini, playing the guitar part to the latter's duets for violin and guitar.
　　Giulio Regondi (1822-1872) toured Europe extensively as a child prodigy in company with a man who claimed to be his father, but who subsequently deserted him taking with him the proceeds of Regondi's successes. An article in the Harmonicon magazine (1831, p. 200) under the heading "Diary of a Dilettante" describes one of his London appearances: "Among the musical wonders of the day is Giulio Regondi, the child whose performances on the Spanish Guitar are not only calculated to surprise but　please even connoisseurs. This most interesting prodigy, for such he may be termed, who has only reached his eighth year was born at Lyons; his mother being a native of Germany, but his father an Italian: To say that he plays with accuracy and neatness what is difficult is only doing him scanty justice; to correctness in both time and tune he adds a power of expression and a depth of feeling which would be admired in an adult; in him they show a precocity at once amazing and alarming; for how commonly are such geniuses either cut off by the preternatural action of the mind, or mentally exhausted at an age when the intellects of ordinary persons are beginning to arrive at their full strength."
　　In fact Regondi continued to tour successfully and to charm audiences with the particularly poetic quality of his interpretation.
　　Many of the celebrated Vienna composers were familiar with the guitar and played it as an accompaniment to songs. Both Schubert and von Weber were players and both published a number of songs with guitar accompaniment. In The Guitar and Mandolin (Schott, London. Revised edition 1954), P. J. Bone wrote, 'The majority of Schubert's accompaniments were conceived on the guitar, and only afterwards did he set them for the piano, and many of his early songs were originally published with guitar. Many of his accompaniments show clearly and indisputably the influence and character of this instrument; they are in truth guitar accompaniments."
