This playlist, Regondi studies, 1-10 is updated every week, more to come! Some of my older listeners may not be aware of these studies, but the younger players will. The reason for this is that they were only re discovered in 1987! Nowadays, Regondi is mainstream repertoire, but not so much in the early 80s and before. Giulio Regondi (1823 – 6 May 1872) was a Swiss-born classical guitarist and composer active in France and (mainly) the United Kingdom. Regondi was born of a German mother and an Italian father in Geneva, Switzerland. A child prodigy, Fernando Sor dedicated his Souvenir d'amitié op. 46 to Regondi in 1831, when the boy was just nine. There is a reference to his appearing in London in 1831, presented as a child prodigy of the guitar; "An interesting little boy of the name of Regondi, apparently between six and seven years of age, performed a fantasia on the guitar, with most manly power and surprising brilliancy. He was seated on a stool, which was placed on the pianoforte." I hope you enjoy this series, please like, comment and subscribe if you do. Thanks to Bim for the camerawork.
