The interpretation of Baroque music on the classical guitar - Peter Croton

Exploring a stylistically expressive approach to Baroque music on the classical guitar with Peter Croton, author of Performing Baroque Music on the Classical Guitar: a practical handbook based on historical sources 

In the 21st century, an increasing number of classical guitarists seek to perform Baroque music with stylistic awareness true to its era. At the heart of this music lies rhetorical expression. Historical Performance Practice, by bringing us closer to the essence of the music, gives us not only more understanding but - above all - more possibilities for moving our listeners. While striving to play in a stylistic manner, we must never forget the goal of performance: to communicate passions and enrich the lives of our listeners.
