Giulio Regondi: Fête Villageoise, Rondo caprice pour la guitarre, Op. 20

Giulio Regondi was a nineteenth-century guitarist, concertina virtuoso and composer whose career was centred in Britain. Celebrated as a child prodigy, he developed an exceptionally demanding guitar style combining Romantic lyricism with elaborate harmony and virtuosity. His surviving guitar music includes studies, variations, Rêverie and Introduction et Caprice, alongside works rediscovered in manuscript.
