<p>It is my hope that this carefully selected set of pieces will offer guidance and clarity to both students and teachers of classical guitar. Now that music is available in such quantity and ease it is more important than ever to have a clear path laid out that will offer the possibility to explore the repertoire without putting up walls of frustration along the way.After working with several thousand guitarists online it has become clear that studying a piece of music that is too difficult can be one of the biggest impediments to learning and also the joy of music making. More often than not, students who experience struggle will put themselves at fault. However, I believe that a curated selection of music that is arranged in a progressive manner can avert frustration, foster steady progress, and make for a joyful learning experience.At the heart of this collection is a desire to foster joy and a sense of accomplishment. It is that joy that most likely brought you to the classical guitar in the first place. Each piece has been chosen because of musical, technical, and pedagogical reasons. The collection as a whole makes up the repertoire component of the curriculum at Classical Guitar Corner Academy and has been worked on diligently by a dedicated community of guitarists around the world.This edition is in standard notation and contains 123 pages. There are 52 pieces in total. Each grade is clearly marked and each piece has a brief set of instruction to help with study and focus. Composers include: Fernando Sor, Francisco Tarrega, J.S. Bach, Napoleon Coste, Matteo Carcassi, Ferdinando Carulli, Agustin Barrios, Mauro Giuliani, Robert De Visee, Domenico Scarlatti, Gaspar Sanz and more.</p>
