About
Second instalment of plucked-string instruments master Jose Miguel Moreno’s series dedicated to the historical Spanish guitar (La guitarra española), this volume covers most of the 19th century, including a foray into the early 20th century. On classical-romantic and post-romantic instruments whose construction he supervised himself, Moreno visits Fernando Sor, Francisco Tarrega, Miguel Llobet and Johann Kaspar Mertz. The album was recorded between 1994 and 1996 in Moreno’s own home studio in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain.
