John Doan - The
Lost Music of Fernando Sor (Harpolyre)
In 1830 Fernando Sor, beloved
as the "Father of the Classical Guitar", composed ten
works for the harpolyre - an instrument thought then to
be a "Perfected Guitar". The music has been lost
for nearly two centuries until John Doan recently
rediscovered a rare original instrument and set out to
make this extraordinary recording. In essence, it
is guitar music with expanded range, resonance, and
effects written by one of the most imaginative
guitarists that the instrument has ever known.
Each piece is a treasure that captures the elegance of a
time in Paris when Sor's gift for lyric and expressive
melodies was quite strong. This magical
performance will take the listener into a forgotten
world that has remained lost with the harpolyre until
now.
