Along the way, the most felicitous of these transcriptions develop an appeal of their own: they show off the instruments for which they are designed, but also illuminate sometimes familiar music in new and delightful ways. Since medieval times, the art of arrangement and transcription has been an important part of music-making. Performers on instruments with limited repertoires often turn to arrangements as a way of expanding their supply of music. Later, purely practical considerations often played an important role in the production of arrangements: by offering works in a variety of guises, composers and publishers sought to increase their circulation and sales. Only one work heard on this recording, Napoleon Coste's charming Le Montagnard was originally written for this combination--and even for this the composer offers the option of playing the upper voice on the violin. The vocal compositions of early composers--such as Dowland, whose music is heard here--often appeared in arrangements and entabulations for lute or keyboard. Throughout the nineteenth century, virtuoso performers such as Franz Liszt (and, more recently, Vladimir Horowitz) capitalized on the popularity of certain compositions or melodies by fashioning their own flamboyant, often fiendishly difficult, versions.Another category of arrangement shares some of these incentives, but aspires to other goals as well. The repertoire for oboe (or its lower-voiced cousin, the English horn) and guitar is small. The numerous transcriptions by Spanish guitarist Andres Segovia are a case in point, introducing to new audiences both an instrument and fresh ways of hearing familiar works So it is here.
