Sonata mongoliana – Stein-Erik Olsen

Virtuoso guitar music

This time Stein-Erik Olsen presents original works for guitar, with the exception of the Scarlatti adaptations. Moving outside the ‘spanish’ repertoire, he moves between Rak, Bellinati, Domeniconi and Koshkin. The contemporary composers here are all great guitar virtuosos, resposible for new developments in guitar playing technique. Stein-Erik Olsen’s latest release was hailed in the Gramophone Magazine: “The record is distiguished by absolutely splendid guitar-playing and eminent composers”.
