Etude for classical guitar by Carcassi

Etude a-moll by famous Italian guitarist and composer Matteo Carcassi (Florence, 1792 – Paris, 16 January 1853). Carcassi began with the piano, but learned guitar when still a child. He quickly gained a reputation as a virtuoso concert guitarist. Carcassi wrote a method for guitar (op. 59) that remains valuable, relevant and interesting. His most famous works are collected in his 25 Etudes op. 60. In these, he managed to blend technical skills and brilliant romantic music. This is the reason his music is still played by so many classical guitarists today.
