Francaix Prelude Amin Gtr ED GA

Guitar Solo.

Only three pieces within his comprehensive oeuvre were written by Françaix for this instrument. The French composer felt much more connected with the harp, a typical French instrument.

The Prélude, published here for the first time, was composed in 1956 and is a marvellous, rather easy-to-play piece of music with its smooth flow of arpeggios. The disguising of the key, A Minor, that is characteristic of Françaix, evokes the Impressionist tone colours of the composer's great predecessors.
