My PDF Sheet Music Edition
Please note: This is a performance edition. Since I only had access to one manuscript of four there is some flexibility on small details. It is a well established work so the notes are all fixed but I did change some slurs to what I feel is more consistent and all fingering is my own selection. I have also changed some of the notation to modernize the edition and simplify some of the three voice writing in a few spots to create a clean score.
Giulio Regondi (1822-1872) was a Swiss-born classical guitarist, concertinist and composer active in France and the United Kingdom. A known child prodigy, in 1831 Fernando Sor dedicated his Souvenir d’amitié op. 46 to Regondi when the boy Regondi was nine years old.
