More from this series
Johann Kaspar Mertz, whose real name was Caspar Joseph Mertz (1806-1856), is the most famous guitarist-composer of the Romantic period. Stylistically comparable to Frédéric Chopin, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, and Robert Schumann, he plays an important role in the guitar repertoire, and his arrangements of Schubert songs, for example, are legendary. The Chanterelle collection aims to honor him and do justice to his importance. While the older 10 volumes are mainly reprints of first editions with detailed prefaces, volumes 11-13 have been newly edited and annotated on the basis of autographs and first editions.
