About The Music（古典时期的吉他音乐作品）
　　Although the total surviving body of guitar music from the early nineteenth century is vast, yet there are few compositions that can be classified as "major works." Attempts at, for instance, sonata-allegro form are rare compared to the enormous volume of waltzes, minuets, andantes, and so on. Nevertheless the two most able composers, Sor and Giuliani, were able to approach the larger canvas and two single-movement examples are included: Sor's Grand Solo and Giuliani's Grand Overture. Both are eminently perform-able on the concert stage, and both use the guitar in the grand manner with orchestral suggestions in the texture.
　　Themes and variations were immensely popular as a form, and tended to suit the guitar because of the uniformity of key which avoided the complications of modulation to difficult positions. The variety appeared in differing rhythmic treatments, with usually a single excursion into the minor mode. Two particularly successful examples are included, Giuliani's variations on the Harmonious Blacksmith theme, and Sor's treatment of the ever popular Folies d'Espagne. For two guitars Diabelli's Variations on a Favorite Theme affords light-hearted entertainment of a type very characteristic of the period.
　　Giuliani's Sonatina from Opus 71 is a beginner's piece, chosen in preference to many similar examples by Carulli, Carcassi and others because even within the confines of the first position the imaginativeness of the better composer is very apparent.
　　Arrangements of operatic themes were popular in the period, but are sparsely represented here on the assumption that a large measure of their original success was due to the fact that the tunes were already well-known which is rarely the case today.
