Background: The Spaniard Fernando Sor is acknowledged to be one of the classic masters of the concert guitar. Rather like Paganini, he travelled throughout Europe as a virtuoso and his playing attracted great attention. Tilman Hoppstock has carefully selected works from the composer's large oeuvre and has combined the somewhat short Studies and Minuets into two new cycles. In the case of Sor's Variations on 'Nel cor più non mi sento' op.16 he goes even further, expanding the work into a collage with parts on Beethoven's variations on the same theme. Stylistic variation is created by Marschner's Six Bagatelles op.4, which have hitherto received far too little attention in the virtuoso classical guitar music repertoire, and Hoppstock's revival of the Sonata in A major by the otherwise unknown Franz Werthmüller.
