Carlo Fierens plays Andante et allegro by Napoléon Coste (1805-1883) performed on a rare 1855 René-François Lacôte seven-string guitar (Coste’s own model), generously lent by Adopt a Musician (Accornero Collection). This comes via Siccas Guitars and their YouTube channel (go subscribe). Amazing to hear these works, not only on a period guitar but on a model that Coste would have used. Love that bridge style on the guitar and, what I assume, is a platform on the top for resting the picky?
