Ernest Shand

Ernest Shand: 23 Guitar Solos from Victorian England 79 pages $14.95 by Stanley Yates. Ernest Shand (1868-1924) was a self taught guitarist whose compositions impressed Madame Sidney Pratten in 1888. She said she had nothing to teach him, and that his pieces were superior to hers.
   These pieces are from the Vahdah Olcott-Bickford collection at the University of California at Northridge, Ca. I find these pieces as refreshing as the works of Guilio Regondi.
