In contrast to Italy, where guitar books had been published since the beginning of the 17th century, the French repertoire in the battuto-pizzicato style emerged only about half a century later. (cd Domenico Rainer works for Baroque Guitar, Brilliant Classics 95866, 2019) (cd Santiago de Murcia: Entre dos almas, Arcana A484, 2021) (cd Corelli Opus 5 Violin Sonatas, Linn Records, CKD412, 2013)Īrchangelo Corelli, arr. (cd Roncalli: Complete Guitar Music, Brilliant Classics 95856, 2021) (cd Spanish Songbooks, Emergo EC 3928-2, 2000) Maria-Luz Álvarez, soprano and Lex Eisenhardt, baroque guitar (cd Sones del Viejo Mundo, Lindoro N元042, 2019) (cd Encuentro Sanz & Santa Cruz, Astrée E 8575, 1997) In Rainer's works, we find clearly recognisable parallels with the violin music of Archangelo Corelli.

In this episode, we will also hear the music by Domenico Rainer which was recently rediscovered. The last book of guitar music from Italy was published by Ludovico Roncalli in 1692, and twenty years after Robert de Visée published his second book (1686), only in 1705 François Campion's Nouvelles Decouvertes appeared in France. It is worth noting that this music is mainly in the plucked style (punteado in Spanish), and that strummed chords (rasgueado) are largely absent.Īfter 1700, almost no music in the mixed battuto-pizzicato style appeared anymore in France and Italy. Towards the end of the 17th century, solo works for guitar appear for the first time in Spain, in books by Gaspar Sanz and Francisco Guerau.
