About
Seven Irish Songs for Two Guitars are arrangements taken from a collection of sketches written for piano by Melody Eotvos. While some pieces availed themselves easily for transcription, not all have maintained their original keys or time signatures. Physical specifications of the guitar have both limited and expanded the range of these works, enabling the use of re-entrant tuning, harmonics, glissandi and slur effects.
