The Romantic period was one of the most extravagant eras in musical history, as these recordings show. All of the composers on this recording treat the guitar in extremely virtuosic manner, often exploiting the instrument's tonal and technical potential up to its limits and beyond, transporting the listener into the Romantic era.
