Throughout his career, Christopher Parkening, America’s preeminent classical guitarist, has had the opportunity to perform with many of the world’s leading artists and orchestras. This folio, Duets and Concertos, contains many selections from those collaborations, and features a wide range of musical pairings which show the guitar at its versatile best: voice and guitar, guitar duets, chamber music, and concertos. All of the pieces included here have been edited and fingered for the guitar by Christopher Parkening, and to quote Christopher himself, “No compromise has been made in requirement of technique. All of these pieces are suitable for performance by the virtuoso guitarist.” This folio contains 35 transcriptions.
