discovering Renaissance together - Masterpieces of the 16. century / Guitar ensemble

14 Masterpieces of the 16.century. Arranged for guitar quartet/ensemble.
Recommended to add soprano guitars/mandolins/flutes/ percussion.... The score lets you take full liberties to make it effective orchestral pieces. But also with a guitar quartet the music is inviting you to dive deep into the 16.century.

I recorded all the pieces in a multitrack session. Basically I used the guitar quartet. I doubled the guitars with mandolins and 12 string-guitar and I added a frame drum in the french dance pieces.

The book is only available as PDF - the order includes a free mp3 download of all the tracks. (Edition Kalimba EK 22)
