SORRY, THIS BOOK IS NOW SOLD OUT (2010).  A second printing is being actively prepared.  We can notify you if you wish as soon as it is again available: if so, please send us an email.

This book includes all Giuliani’s studies and exercises, as follows:

Op. 1    Studio
Giuliani’s famous technical work for the guitar, including the famous left hand and right hand studies, etc.                    
Op. 48   Esercizio
The well-known 24 virtuoso pieces
Op. 51     Eighteen progressive lessons
Op. 98     Delightful studies
Op. 100   Etudes
Op. 139   First Lessons

The music is all Urtext, re-engraved but presenting strictly the original text without any alterations at all: no modern fingering, no changes in dynamics, only what the original texts gave.  That way the reader can be certain of having the authentic text.

This book is a companion to the Complete Studies, Lessons, and Exercises of Sor (TECLA 101). Both books are completely new editions, prepared afresh straight from the original editions of the composers’ own time.

"'Giuliani Studies' is a very good book" (an Italian guitarist, March 2003)

"los estudios completos para guitarra de Mauro Giuliani... Obras especialmente dirigidas a estudiantes ... legibles y bien editadas" (Acordes (Spanish magazine), no. 16, 2003).

"Dr. Jeffery has once again brought to the public works that are truly groundbreaking in their scope ... endlessly inventive and incredibly challenging ... the use of only the master's fingering will be instructive to the student." (Guitart International, April / June 2003).
