| | Pierre Bensusan - The Guitar Book Through the many thousands of musical folios viewed by the staff of Encore Music Company, never have we come across a songbook such as the book featured here. "The Guitar Book" by classical guitarist Pierre Bensusan is written for advanced fingerstyle guitar players. It is the first book in the United States of Bensusan's arrangements. It contains sections on all aspects of guitar performance, and includes pieces by various composers, including Mr. Bensusan's traditional Irish fiddle tunes, French ballads and more. But the music is only the beginning! Pierre Bensusan explores the relation of the music to other artistic endeavors including classical poetry, paintings, photography, even cooking! (Some of Pierre's recipes for the guitarist are also included...) Bensusan assures us that this well-rounded approach to the music will give the player a deeper understanding and appreciation for the musical themes explored in the book.
