Classical Guitar Magazine (Winter 2015)
The genesis of this book came from the idea to get contemporary composers to write music based on the works of 19th-century giant Gioachino Rossini, to be included in the 34th Rossini Opera Festival in 2013 in Pesaro ... There are six pieces ... all in completely different styles, and all quoting in some form or other a motif or theme from one of Rossini’s famous works ... Providing you are open to many different styles of modern writing for the guitar, these six large works will provide many players with quite a technical challenge. (C. Dumigan)
