François Doisy - Prémière Etude en Ut Mineur

François Doisy (Previously known as "Charles") was a five string guitar virtuoso, that passed away in Paris in 1807. His method Principe Généraux de la Guitare contains lots of valuable information about performance practice of music written in his times. In the back of Principes Généraux there are 14 "Etudes pour la Guitare". (studies for the guitar) I found them very interesting both technically and musically. Not only are they good studies, they also tells us a lot about what Charles Doisy thought was important to work on to become a good musician. I hope you as a listener also finds this music interesting. I have chosen to begin my journey with the goal of recording all 14 Doisy studies, and share them with the world. Big thanks to Tonny Krokengen that let me borrow the beautiful church on Sem built in the year 1100. François Doisy also wrote two guitar concertos, that are amongst the earliest concertos in the history of the guitar. You can listen to a live recording with me and my Nova Vita ensemble of the first concerto (all three movements) here:   / charles-doisy-grande-concerto   As you can hear on this recording the church also wanted to play along, so the cracks in there is the wood in the church reacting to the sun coming through the window... since I have 0 editing skills, the sounds are still there, but then on the other hand, you got this music free of charge too :-) Support my work here: https://ko-fi.com/runarkjeldsberg   / runarkjeldsberg   http://runarkjeldsberg.com   / runarkjeldsberg   http://phonofile.link/franois-de-foss...
