Recently I have made a scan of a guitar method by Eduard Bayer<\/strong> and added it to my score catalogue at musicaneo.com.<\/p>\n

Eduard Bayer was a guitar virtuoso and composer of the 19th century. He played a special guitar with 10 strings, an early version of the harp-guitar. I have found the following video of a performance of the Souvenir d’Amour<\/strong> by Eduard Bayer played by Brian Torosian on a reproduction of a guitar like the one played by Eduard Bayer:<\/p>\n

Brian Torosian performs Bayer’s Souvenir d’amour on 10-string Harp Guitar<\/h4>\n

Dr. Brian Torosian performs “Souvenir d’amour (Fantasie Brillante), Op. 22” by Eduard Bayer (1822-1908) on an R. E. Brune reproduction of a classic 1850’s Scherzer 10-string harp guitar at the 8th Harp Guitar Gathering November 13, 2010.
\nI believe this is the first-ever recording of this virtuoso harp guitar piece.
