This comprehensive release is a celebration of the astonishing presence of the guitar in Russia at the beginning of the 19th century. Just the sheer number of composers featured on this 7CD album exemplifies how popular the instrument was. Though many of these composers have now fallen into obscurity, their works live on – discovered by renowned guitarist Oleg Timofeyev, an expert on the music of this time. Mr Timofeyev is known for reviving the seven-string Russian guitar, and it is on this instrument that he performs these works, many of which have never been recorded before.

Artists: Oleg Timofeyev (Russian seven-string guitar), John Schneiderman (Russian seven-string guitar ), Dan Caraway (Russian seven-string guitar ), Anne Harley (soprano ), Etienne Abelin (classical violin), Kenneth Slowik (fortepiano)
