Sinier de Ridder / Jérôme Casanova, La Guitare espagnole · 1750-1950, Camino Verde, 2019
The violin is Italian, the bow is French, but the guitar is Spanish. This book traces two hundred years of history from its origins until 1950. Ninety-five historical instruments are presented, mostly unknown, modest or luxurious, typical of an era, a repertoire but especially of a country and a culture. We see in particular the guitars of Duran, Sanguino, Pagés, Benedid, Perças, Torres, Santos Hernández, Fleta. Three top French luthiers, Françoise de Ridder, Daniel Sinier and Jérôme Casanova share their passion and their years of experience.
