Isaac Albéniz for guitar ensemble / orchestra

Four masterpieces from the Spanish National School by master Isaac Albéniz. Originally for piano, available in Jürg Kindle's arrangement for 4 guitars and bass. Asturias' high-flying hit is in the original key of G minor. Guitars 1 and 2 with string 1 tuned to D and guitars 3 and 4 with string 6 tuned to D. In order to obtain the required staccato of the original composition, handkerchiefs are placed under the strings at the bridge (Kalimba sends its regards)
