Who would have thought you could play classical music on a ukulele? But you can!
Here are compositions from the 19th Century - the Romantic Era - transcribed for the Low G ukulele.
Julián Arcas (1832-1882) was a Spanish classical guitarist and composer. He was born in Almería and died in Antequera, Spain. Arcas performed all over Europe from 1860 through 1880 where a young Francisco Tárrega listened to him in 1862 in Castellón and played for him after the performance. Arcas then invited Tárrega to study with him in Barcelona.
Arcas wrote fifty-two original works and transcribed thirty pieces for the guitar, including waltzes, variations, preludes, and dances. Through the work of the guitar maker Antonio de Torres, Arcas influenced the development of the classical guitar, particularly concerning the design of the soundboard.
These pieces are somewhat more complex and are for intermediate to advanced players.
Have fun!
