Allegro
Dioniso Aguado
Dioniso Aguado (1784 - 1849) was a fellow-countryman of Fernando Sor, they were also friends when they both lived in Paris. Sor’s guitar duo Les Deux Amis bears witness of this friendship.
Aguado is known for his method Escuela de Guitarra from 1825 and a moderate number of solo works, amongst them some quite difficult ones, containing stretches which are impossible on the modern guitar with the longer scale.
Fortunately Allegro is much more easy to play. This piece originates from the Encyclopedie Pittoresque from 1895. The piece shows a few joyful motifs.
