Segovia's collection of Sor has value as a pedagogical tool regardless

Re: Segovia's name is larger than Sor's on the book. It occurred to me

probably more well known than Sor at the time so his name would

Your paragraph implies that Chilesotti was made famous by Segivia, and
not by Respighi.

That happens often enough.
I have recently attended a Hoppy concert in NYC that showed no evidence
of lutenistic notability. I've heard him twice before and those times
his playing was a lot worse. In yet one more instance at the
Metropolitan Museum he was accompanying Andrea von Ramm, and
I think it was clear that I was referring to the very standard intermediate
level suite for guitar Six Lute Pieces from the Renaissance .
All literate guitarists know this work.

I once had the pleasure of giving a concert with Andrea von Ramm. The
programme included anything from Nibelungen Lied to Everly Brothers,
but nothing lutenistic notable. Never had so much fun on stage before,
or after; she was a great musician as well as hilariously funny.

I hired Paul to conduct a masterclass at the Manhattan School of Music. A
student played the Six Pieces for Lute from the Renaissance for him.
These pieces were standard works for a time and Segovia often started his
concerts with these pieces. He made them famous because he performed them

I think that possibly more people heard more of Segovia's recordings of Six

That's extremely doubtful. I've attended orchestral concerts by major
symphony
doubt it. i have four recordings of the Respighi, but didn't even know of the
existence of 'Six Lute Pieces' till this thead, much less Segovia's recording.
but then i have no CG background whatsoever...

The Respighi was pretty popular among the easy listening/classical
crowd in the 70's; eg., restaurant rotation. My dad had it on 8-track.
He also had some Segovia records but we weren't allowed to touch those.

But, in an odd bit of relevance, the Respighi 8-track had a lovely

Well, everyone seems to be mentioning his/her initial lute inspiration. For
me, it was Joseph Iadone - he was my older brother's bass teacher at Hartt
School of Music. After hearing Joe play, I had little interest in Julian
Bream as a lutenist.

My first hearing of the lute was on a Harmonia Mundi sampler cd back in 1990. I
