From PG Music Inc

The Sor Studies is a professional, fully featured multimedia music program containing superb professional classical guitar performances of Fernando Sor's celebrated studies for guitar (Opus numbers 6, 29, 31, 35, 44, and 60, complete). We've recorded live, complete performances by a top classical guitarist - many with full-motion closeup videos - bringing new technology to classic masterpieces.

An Invaluable Learning Resource!
This definitive collection of studies for the classical guitar is an essential learning resource. It is accorded the same significance in the study of the guitar as that given to Bach's Well Tempered Clavier in the study of the piano. All performances are taken from the earliest available facsimiles of the music - the VOB collection. PG Music's innovative multimedia presentation of the material adds exciting dimensions to the study and appreciation of Sor's timeless works. 

3 CD-ROMs of superb classical music!
This interactive program comes on 3 full CD-ROMs with hours of high quality classical guitar music plus a complete Sor biography, a historical timeline, and many more powerful multimedia features for enhanced appreciation and study!

Full On Screen Notation and Printout!
Follow the music notation on-screen as you listen to the recorded digital audio performance. The notation scrolls by in sync with the audio and video recordings, with a highlight box to indicate the current measure. Print out a high-resolution engraver quality copy with fingering and chord symbols to use for reference and study. Make your own study book by printing your personal favorites.
