A welcome new addition to the guitar repertoire in the same tradition of concert etudes such as Brouwer, Diego-Pujol and Villa-Lobos. Great-sounding, challenging, yet accessible. Bo Hansson shows in 5 etudes how to combine well-composed pieces with an educational vision of modern guitar technique.
Said of 5 Etudes Bo Hansson's 5 etudes are a very welcome addition to the guitar's original literature. These well-composed etudes are not just etudes in the traditional sense – they are well-sounding and idiomatic pieces with many quirky and exciting exercises inserted into each etude. I am convinced that they will be played regularly - in the practice room and at concerts. Highly recommended! Jan-Olof Eriksson, Professor of Guitar
Piteå Academy of Music Feel free to listen to Bo Hansson's own live recording of the etudes.
