By Gary Branch and James Akers. By Anton Diabelli, Ferdinando Carulli, Ignaz Moscheles, and Mauro Giuliani. Country of Origin: United Kingdom. Classical. CD (1 disc). Published by Naxos (NX.RES10182).Period guitarist James Akers returns to the Resonus Classics label with this programme of Classical works for guitar and piano. Joined by duo partner, fortepianist Gary Branch, this memorable recording presents music written with domestic settings in mind by some of the leading composers of the time, most of whom were resident in Vienna at some point in their lifetimes. Recorded on period instruments, including a rare original 1826 fortepiano by Conrad Graf, this elegant album marks one of the last to be made in Kent's Finchcocks Musical Museum.
