I'm delighted to announce my new album: Fernando Sor: The Art Of The 19th-Century Guitar, Volume 1 This recording is devoted to 32 of my favourite studies by this towering genius of the early 19th-century classical guitar. It is a download-only album, available from iTunes, Amazon and CD Baby: [1]http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/robmackillop3 - where you can hear excerpts. I use a modern copy of the type of guitar favoured by Sor, a Lacote by Michael Nalysnyk of[2]www.historicalguitars.co.uk, using gut and silk strings by Aquila-Corde, specially formulated for the early 19th-century repertoire. I have also tried to get as close as possible to the technique outlined by Sor in his Method. The album is set at a low price, and once downloaded can be played on your computer, iPad, phone, or burned to a CD. The CD Baby page includes Programme Notes.
