The Guitar in Venezuela
No-one can be in any doubt as to the popularity of Venezuelan guitar music today from the early work of Raul Borges through the next generation of Rodrigo Riera, Antonio Lauro and of course Alirio Diaz. This tradition is continued today with world renowned players such as Ricardo Iznaola, Alfonso Montes, Luis Zea and of course through the recent performances of John Williams.
This book traces the history of the Guitar in Venezuela from its earliest roots right up to end of the 20th century. Useful appendices include a discography of Venezulan guitarists plus a list of original compositions. An essential read for anyone interested in the classical guitar and its evolution in this influetial South American country. Preface by Angelo Gilardino.
