This review is from: Giulani: Complete Guitar Concertos (Audio CD)

These CDs include 3 concerti and 2 quintets. Mauro Giuliani (1781-1829) wrote lyrical thoughtful music, mostly for the 6 string guitar of which he was the master. This delightful music is competently performed. It is Italian music, not Spanish. Expect the lush and dramatic. Giuliani was also a cellist. In this capacity, on 12/8/1813, he performed (in company with Hummel, Mayseder, Spohr, et al.) in the premier of Beethoven's 7th Symphony.
