30 Sonatas for Guitar
by Domenico Scarlatti ; edited by Jamey Bellizzi Book. 112 pages.
Domenico Scarlatti composed some 555 sonatas for the harpsichord. As their texture is light and the music is usually homophonic- they transcribe very well for the guitar. In this book, Jamey Bellizzi presents 30 Scarlatti sonatas in standard classical guitar notation. Performance notes, facsimile reproductions of Scarlatti's original manuscripts, and a biographical sketch of the composer are an added bonus.

25 Etudes Esquisses for Guitar
by Gerald Garcia Book. 60 pages.
This collection of classic guitar studies is intended for the intermediate guitarist. As a whole, these etudes emulate the content of Carcassi's famed 25 Etudes, yet in a more contemporary harmonic and rhythmic idiom. These pieces are also distinguished in that they are not only valuable as left and right-hand technical exercises- but also as valid, pleasurable concert repertoire. The first ten etudes 11-20 focus on the use of the a finger in combination with i and m. Etudes 4,7,11,13,15, and 17 also concentrate on left-hand slurs. The final five etudes were composed as - and intended to be performed- as a set with each piece dedicated to a particular Latin American composer.

This comprehensive edition brings together all of the standard pieces in the adopted Albeniz "guitar repertoire" along with additional pieces that complete many of the suites and other groupings as published during the composer's lifetime.

J. S. Bach: Six Unaccompanied Cello Suites Arranged for Guitar
by Johann Sebastian Bach ; arranged by Stanley Yates. 198 pages.
Although Johann Sebastian Bach did not write any music for the guitar, transcriptions of his unaccompanied string music and music for lute have long been a part of the guitar repertoire. Despite the respect that this music commands among musicians and audiences debate still exists as to what constitutes an appropriate means of transcribing, interpreting and performing this music on the guitar. It is this debate that prompted this long-awaited edition of Bach's unaccompanied cello suites by scholar and concert guitarists Stanley Yates. This definitive work includes performance scores, comparison scores and an invaluable 40-page guide entitled Arranging, Interpreting, and Performing the Music of J.S. Bach. Furthermore, the author offers comments on his arranging process and suggestions on using this edition including: ornamentation, slurs, fingerings, notation, and implementation of the comparison scores. Written in standard notation in guitar-friendly keys. The companion CD included contains Suites 1-3 only.

J. S. Bach: The Complete Lute Works
by Johann Sebastian Bach ; transcribed for guitar by József Eötvös Book. 128 pages.
This edition contains J.S. Bach's lute works arranged for guitar. Most of these works were for the lute or the lute-harpsichord, a keyed instrument with gut strings that could imitate the lute with its colorful sounds. The arranger has retained the structure and character of the originals as much as possible, based mainly on consultation of the original sources, and has attempted to emulate the clarity of Bach's own manuscripts. Where works required significant alteration to be playable on guitar, the questionable parts have been reconstructed to arrive at the best solution which is the closest to the original. Fingerings have been added only where necessary. Extensive notes on the arranging process are included. Notation only.
