Composers would write for harpsichord, piano, violin, cello, orchestra\\u2026 and thus attained global fame for works that have lost none of their power over the centuries. And yet, composers have always sought ways to\\r\u003cbr\u003eimprove their compositions, and would rewrite and rearrange (parts of) them.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003ePerhaps they envisioned something that was simply not yet possible. Perhaps they were dissatisfied and remained so throughout their whole musical lives. Perhaps you as a listener remained unsatisfied. But perhaps we have found the\\r\u003cbr\u003eperfect solution. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eWhat if Mozart had played the guitar, for example? How would his music have sounded? Or take Bach, and exchange his love of the harpsichord with the guitar. Or perhaps Bizet\\u2019s \\u2018Carmen\\u2019 might have been an instant success if he had used the guitar in his opera to evoke the atmosphere of Spain.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eOn this new recording, you can find out!  The Four Aces Guitar Quartet has been performing together since 2008 and present a unique view of some well known repertoire.\u003cp\u003eMOZART:  Allegro Con Spirito From Sonata For 2 Pianos In D Major, K.448\/375a\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSCRIABIN: Impromptu In B-flat Minor, Op. 12 N\\xb02.
