Exceptional Classics for Guitar is a rare compilation of music from the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods. Unlike traditional method books which frequently feature anonymous and monotonous exercises, Exceptional Classics published by Santorella Publications features the best known classical works from the most talented composers of the 18th and 19th centuries. Having been transcribed from the original piano works and arranged for classical or fingerstyle guitar, extreme care was given to the key choice, left-hand fingerings and octave ranges, which makes each arrangement extremely playable. All these classic titles are perfect for any wedding setting and by paginating without awkward page-turns; this book is performance friendly and appreciated by countless working musicians today. We have also included important biographical information and historical notes about Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, George Frederic Handel, Franz Joseph Haydn, Felix Mendelssohn, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Johann Pachelbel, Richard Wagner and the musical gifts they gave us. We, at Santorella Publications, feel that education is first and foremost and learning about these great men, is truly the key to bringing their works to life. Includes: Moonlight Sonata, Beethoven - Pachelbel's Canon, Pachelbel - Little Serenade, Haydn - Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, Bach - Fur Elise, Beethoven - Bridal Chorus, Wagner - Ode To Joy, Beethoven - Sleepers Awake!, Bach - Bouree, Bach - Minuet, Mozart - Two Minuets, Bach - Theme, Handel - Prelude, Handel.

I was looking for the right equipment for my Camac Isolde Celtic harp. I did NOT want to install the Dusty Strings pick-ups- seemed like way too much to add. This little gizmo was easy to install with the little pictures on placement- like, less than five minutes easy. I plugged the pickup into my new Roland Mobile Cube and it’s perfect! I don’t hear any sound distortion, and I think this will be just right when playing background music for noisier environments. Super happy with this!

I was excited to receive this kit. I do have several banjos already; however, I did not have a mountain banjo. I have built gourd banjos and ekontings (I went to Gambia in 2004 and 2007 to learn how to play and make them) from scratch, so I am not a beginner in terms of making instruments. I had a lot of fun putting the kit together. I do have a few observations regarding tips or slight modifications in the instruction manual, if interested.
Thanks!

I am very happy with the quality of the instrument. I am of Puerto Rican decent and it reminds me of my childhood, watching the musicians and learning to play myself. It is a beautiful guiro and sounds amazing.

It's great to be able to buy a hurdy gurdy in the US without having to wait for 6 months to a year or more. The Aplo is a quality entry level instrument that produces beautiful sound. It resonates very well and there are no buzzes or squeaks. Workmanship is very good. I got mine cottoned, rosined and tuned in a half hour. The transaction was easy and it arrived within a week.
I've been able to play some tunes on it with only a few hours of practice. It's going to be a lot of fun.

I love it, the entonation is really very good (sorry for my bat english).
Regards!
