Sor: Pieces pour la Guitare on CD

Fernando Sor, an unparalleled figure in the classical guitar world, revolutionized guitar composition by emulating the rich textures of orchestral music. Educated at the prestigious Escolania de Montserrat and guided by Father Anselm Viola, Sor's works reflect his profound understanding of counterpoint and polyphony, reminiscent of Haydn's influence. His innovative techniques, from the use of natural harmonics to polyphonic textures, transformed the guitar into an instrument capable of producing a spectrum of orchestral sounds. This album with Xavier Diaz Latorre features some of Sor's most exquisite pieces, including Les Folies d'Espagne, Op. 15 and Variations Brillantes sur un Air Favori de Mozart, Op. 9, showcasing his compositional brilliance and the evocative power of his music. Each track is a testament to Sor's legacy, blending classical elegance with expressive depth, offering listeners an extraordinary auditory experience.
