In this critical edition, all of Narváez's solo works are transcribed into staff notation for the guitar, the majority of the pieces appearing here for the first time. The easy-to-read score, which is entirely faithful to the original tablature, will open up this magnificent early repertoire to a new generation of performers and teachers.

“This edition should encourage classical guitarists to explore the wider repertoire, which is different in many respects from the pieces which have been made popular by eminent guitarists such as Segovia. It may also be of use to those who are interested in Spanish instrumental music of the period more generally, who require a version in staff notation because they cannot read tablature. It is also much more affordable than other available editions of this repertoire.”

The Consort

“Everything in this publication is aimed at practicality and uncomplicated access to the music. [...] Nesyba’s work is flawless [...] a treasure trove of good ideas.”
