List of compositions for guitar
Encyclopedia
This article lists the classical guitar music in the classical guitar
repertoire. It includes baroque guitar and vihuela
music, but not lute
music. This music is most commonly performed by classical guitarists
and requires the use of a variety of classical guitar technique
s to play.
During the Renaissance, the guitar was likely to have been used as it frequently is today, to provide strummed accompaniment for a singer or a small group. There also were several significant music collections published during the sixteenth century of contrapuntal compositions approaching the complexity, sophistication and breadth of lute music from the same time period.
Baroque
music describes an era and a set of styles of European classical music which were in widespread use between approximately 1600 to 1750 (see Dates of classical music eras
for a discussion of the problems inherent in defining the beginning and end points). This era is said to begin in music after the Renaissance
and to be followed by the Classical music era. The original meaning of "baroque" is "irregularly shaped pearl", a strikingly fitting characterization of the architecture
and design of this period; later, the name came to be applied also to its music. It is associated with composers such as J.S. Bach
, George Friedrich Händel
, Antonio Vivaldi
, and Claudio Monteverdi
. During the period, music theory, diatonic tonality, and imitative counterpoint developed. More elaborate musical ornamentation, as well as changes in musical notation and advances in the way instruments were played also appeared. Baroque music would see an expansion in the size, range and complexity of performance.
Some genres of modern music include atonal music, which rejects the tonal system of nearly all other musical styles, as well as aleatoric, which rejects the absolutism of the composer and allows the player to take an active role in how the piece is played. For example, in Leo Brouwer's Etude No. 20, he supplies a series of melodies that increase in length, and he invites the player to play each section of the melody as many times as he or she chooses. Regional styles are also prevalent in modern guitar music, such as the music of Latin America, where unique harmonies and fresh material can be found.
In the 20th century, many non-guitarist composers wrote for the instrument, whereas previously, only players of the instrument had done so.
