Description :

In the author’s words
this collection of 10 modern classical guitar pieces was composed to emulate the “elusive
graceful
fragile
subtle
elegant
stealthy qualities” of cats. Inspired by a rich tapestry of styles including classical
flamenco
jazz
pop
avant-garde
Balkan
and more generally—world music
this book is perfect for anyone wishing to expand their guitar repertoire and technique. As cat fanciers abound
this collection is sure to please audiences and performers alike.The pieces consist mainly of notated improvisations
gently shaped to give them a sense of structure and completion. Five of the pieces are in drop-D or another scordatura tuning. Some have a simple folk-like form and harmony while others are more abstract. Written in standard notation only for the intermediate to advanced guitarist
performance notes and online audio recordings are provided for each cat-like composition.
