We get so much sheet music sent to us by various publishers year \u2019round\u2014literally hundreds of pieces in every setting imaginable (solo guitar, multiple guitars, guitar-flute, guitar-harp, etc.)\u2014but we don\u2019t have the space to write about the great majority of them in our four quarterly issues each year.<\/p>\n

So, just as we are now listing new classical guitar CD releases every other Tuesday here, we now use the Tuesdays in between those to announce new print music releases. As with the CDs, these are not reviews per se (some\u00a0will<\/em>\u00a0be reviewed in the magazine, but frankly most will not), but we think it\u2019s important to at least get the word out about what\u2019s being offered to guitarists out there. Where possible, we\u2019ve linked the titles to the publisher\u2019s website or some other outlet where it can be purchased, and stated the degree of difficulty (if provided by the publisher or it\u2019s obvious).\u00a0\u00a0\u2014Blair Jackson<\/em><\/p>\n

\nSalvatore Seminara<\/strong>
\nQuattro Pezzi Sorprendenti<\/strong><\/em> <\/a>(for guitar and cello)
\nLes Productions D’Oz, 12 pp. plus part<\/p>\n

From the Italian composer’s notes accompanying the piece: “I particularly enjoy composing instrumental parts on a pre-existing piece following the example of some great composers of the past<\/span>. This work started from four outstanding original studies by Fernando Sor which, although never banal, sound simple and therefore suitable to be integrated with an additional melodic part, which is almost always predominant.\u00a0The intent is not to emulate the style of the famous Spanish author but to give new life to these studies in a spontaneous, playful way.” Intermediate.<\/p>\n

\nM\u00e1ximo Diego Pujol<\/strong>
\n3 Pi\u00e8ces: Villa Pueyrred\u00f3n, Plaza Italia, Villa Real<\/em> <\/a>(solo guitar)
\nEditions Henry Lemoine, 12 pp.<\/p>\n

Prolific Argentinean composer composer returns to his roots for a trio of appealing pieces, which he says evoke \u00a0“three districts of Buenos Aires of great importance to my personal history. Villa Pueyrred\u00f3n<\/em> is the district where I was born. Villa Real<\/em> was the\u00a0neighborhood of my youth, were large, popular festivities were held during Carnaval. And the Plaza Italia is a square [and park] \u00a0located just in front of the zoo.” Advanced.<\/p>\n

Here’s a pretty version of <\/em>Plaza Italia, performed by Kevin Loh:<\/em>
