Georg's Favorite: Villa-Lobos Prelude IV
The CD is a compilation of guitar music from the Renaissance to contemorary music from South America.
The album was first edited on cassette in 1990. The cassette became known as "the Blue Cassette". I decided to re issue this compilation after I was repeatedly approached by owners of the cassette who begged me to put it on CD (including parents whose children wouldn't go to sleep without it).
I added for this CD edition my favourite pieces of my first LP "Alte und neue Musik fur klassische Gitarre" (Lueneburg 1983): Weiss Fantasy and Dowland's Queen Elizabeth Galliard.
On the 1983 recording I play a "Kohno 30" guitar, on the 1990 recording a guitar made by Juan Lopez Aguilarte (Granada, Spain).
Georg Mertens (Mertens-Moussa 1990-2002) was born in Aachen (Germany), studied at the Staatliche Hochschule f. Musik in Freiburg with Prof. Anton Stingl.
↓ more ↓He toured Europe between 1978-84, giving more than a hundred solo recitals and moved in 1985 to Australia.
Georg plays also guitar on the CD's: "Blue Mountains Gypsies" with the Paganini Duo and "Sounds of Timber" together with Jodie Goldney.
