Taught by renowned guitaristÂ
Nigel North
Join acclaimed virtuoso Nigel North as he sits down with Sylvius Leopold Weiss's masterful Tombeau dedicated to the Austrian count and amateur (yet very capable) musician and composer Comte d'Logy. North examines the piece on both lute and guitar, providing insight into selecting the most effective key. Rendering Weiss's ornaments correctly requires an awareness of period-appropriate styles, which North has studied closely. Most importantly, a Tombeau should incorporate all of this technique to convey an affect of deep grief and sadness.
