Latin Music Notation
Guitar Background Music?
I have to play background music with my classical guitar for an art exhibit but im not sure what to play. I have some latin music by lauro, piazzolla, ponce, and some european by tarrega, sor, aguado, bach, but what is the standard background music repertoir? is there like specific pieces that are considered “background” music?? names of the pieces and composers will be greatly appreciated i have no problem with learning new music either tab or standard notation, difficulty of the pieces are no problem either
well i do have those arrangements by bach and i have jesus joy in my arsenal as well. About atonal music i didnt mention any brouwer or villalobos so i dont know why you brought it up. Its not my first gig either. The art exhibit is about latin art as well as renaissance, i guess i should have mentioned that before, thats why i mentioned latin composers and some european and again the baroque bach, i also have some fantasias by mylan and narvahez.
You mentioned Bach, but not any specific pieces. If you don’t already have them I’d suggest:
Air (for a G String)
Bouree
You can hear guitar versions of those two at:

Another Bach piece that’s wonderful on classical guitar is
Jesus, Joy of Man’s Desiring
The premiumbeat site has that piece as well but arranged for a string quartet.
