This recording grew out of my admiration for the music of Spanish guitar virtuoso Fernando Sor (1778-1839). Here are recordings of the six valses of Sor’s Op. 44 bis. (Through the miracle of overdubbing, I play both parts.) Although Sor intended these as easy teaching pieces, they’re also surprisingly rich studies in musicianship. I hope you enjoy hearing them as much as I enjoyed playing them.
If you’re interested, I’ve written an essay on the making of these recordings. You can find it here: www.pooretom.com/sorproject.html

I practiced all these 6 waltz in 2012 with my friend and performed in a community recital. Technically very simple but musically profound. I appreciate your musicality and interpretation. Most of the Sor's duets are very well composed and we are enjoying practicing one by one like Fantasy Op.54bis, Encouragement, Russian memory etc.

Number one and five are my favorites. Weird; this video after several years should have way more views. If you were a blonde teenage girl playing the same thing, you would have 5 million views. Shtty youtube.
