Fernando Sor (attributed); Meditacion - original Staufer guitar

This piece may or may not be by Sor. It survives in a mid 19th century, probably Spanish edition that has various problems attached. It is published in a couple of books as by Sor, but not in the standard complete editions by the likes of Tecla.
This performance was recorded in the student concert at the end of the Bath Guitar Festival in 1995, on a Staufer guitar made around 1830.

[petrosandreou47]

very nice it sounds more like mertz than sor well done hope you are keeping well

[JacarandaMusic]

@petrosandreou47 - maybe, except that it actually quotes one or two other pieces by Sor, and has several of his fingerprints over it, but yes it is of a later, more Romantic manner which is part of the doubt over its attribution.

Yes all good here, you?

Another surfacing from the aged archives, much like Sor or Mertz or............nice to see your public face!
