for guitar [COPYRIGHT RETURNED TO COMPOSER]
This work is the fourth of a set of pieces composed after the opera 'Commedia'. These guitar pieces follow in the tradition of the old 'lazzi' from the seventeenth-century Commedia dell'Arte: they are show-pieces and are also an attempt to illustrate some of the characteristics of the players in the opera.
