Amazon Review
If you've been aching to play Vivaldi on classical guitar, this book is for you. Over thirty selections are meticulously fingered and presented in both standard and tablature notations. Several pages of Historical Notes and Performance Suggestions provide information on Vivaldi's life and tips on performing each piece. Since ornamentation is so essential to this kind of music, the book includes an explanation of ornamentation, in terms of both its historical contexts and its execution. Technical difficulty ranges from intermediate to advanced. Many of the pieces lie so well on the guitar you'd swear that Vivaldi must have been a guitarist!
