Solo Guitar
8 p.
A worthy edition for the Grade 6+ student
Although given the overall title of Preludes, each of these pieces could easily be served as alternatives to the usual contemporary etudes studied when the intermediate-plus stage is reached, and my feeling is that they would have far more use employed in a didactic fashion rather than as pieces of music as "food for the ear."
This is not to say that they are not worthy of listening to-indeed, they hold a certain attraction, and due to the contrasts between each piece, they would easily fit into any contemporary music slot in a formal recital. But their value as "technique irnprovers" is high; both hands will benefit greatly if practiced diligently and some of the fascinating chord sequences Fimbel has come up with provide excellent material for study.
