Andantino

Composer: Matteo Carcassi (1792 - 1853)

Matteo Carcassi (8 April 1796 – 16 January 1853) was an Italian guitarist and composer. He wrote a method for guitar (Méthode complète pour la guitare, Op. 59), first published with Schott in Mainz, in 1836. It is still valuable, relevant and interesting. His most famous works are collected in his 25 Études, Op. 60. In these, he managed to blend technical skills and brilliant Romantic music. This is the reason his music is still played by so many classical guitarists today.


This piece is a study in Op. 59 and selected from one of RCM (The Royal Conservatory of Music) preparatory level repertoire.
