The guitar is most often and rightly linked to Spanish music and Spanish composers. These recordings of the Prague Guitar Quartet are all dedicated to works by Spanish composers, be they original four-guitar compositions or transcriptions. The Prague Guitar Quartet was founded in 1984 at the Prague Conservatoite. It's present lineup is Marek Veleminsky, Matej Freml, Vaclav Kucera, and Patrick Vacik. All the four guitarists of this exceptionally successful ensemble are leading artists and laureates of a number of domestic as well as international competitions. The Quartet appears at many prestigious festivals and has, during it's 30 years' career, toured in most countries in Europe, in the USA and in the Middle East. Many of the Prague Guitar Quartet's stylistically sophisticated and musically accomplished interpretations have been recorded, and the ensemble has initiated the composition of a number of original works by Czech as well as world authors. Beside original works for four guitars, the Quartet also draws on a repertoire of transcriptions from different periods.
