Fernando Sor Sheet Music for Classical Guitar

Fernando Sor (1778–1839) – PDF sheet music or tab for classical guitar with free videos and lessons of his studies, etudes, and pieces. Modern and public domain sheet music PDF’s of Sor’s classical guitar works from easy to advanced. Sor wrote many studies (etudes) for classical guitar and below are a selection of sheet music editions but mostly free public domain PDFs. These are facsimiles that is, period editions and out of dates editions too. I’ve tried to choose only the best ones. A virtuoso performer and composer, Fernando Sor was famed in his day and well remembered today. Sor studies vary greatly in their pedagogical use, some are exercises while others shy away from the etude aspect and are simply nice compositions. Sor studies may not be remembered for their compositional genius but they do require a special classical touch to bring out the musicality of the studies – maybe the main reason they are heavily used in guitar pedagogy.

    • No sure if there is. But it is firmly on the intermediate to late-intermediate level. That said, like many works, it depends on your desired level of refinement and tempo. Most of those works are playable even by early-intermediate students but there is such a huge range of refinement opportunities.
