Comment by Bernard Hebb
(Professor of guitar at the Hochschule für Künste Bremen (University of the Arts Bremen), Germany)

This concerto, originaly writen for solo oboe and orchestra in C minor, has enjoyed a large degree of popularity over the years in it´s original form and in the form of transcriptions for various combinations, the oldest transcription or arrangement being, probably, from Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) for harpsicord solo in D minor. Since the classical guitar does not have any original concerto literature from the baroque period, this composition is a lovely addition to the repertoire and will help to fill the gap in this area
From the three original movements of this concerto, the second one – Adagio – seems to be the most popular and is often heard as a duo for two guitars or in combinations like oboe and guitar, recorder and organ, and flute and piano. The Jovan Pesec arrangement and edition of the entire concerto, offers the guitarist a chance to perform a composition for guitar and small string orchestra that is not only  beautiful, but presents an alternative to the over performed Vivaldi lute concerti of this epoch.

Gabriel Guillén recorded this concerto under conductor Georg Kugi with v4m.strings.vienna by studio.v4m.net. Art director  Jovan Pesec. Producer Judith.P.Fischer.

Remark: The score of this concert will be published together with a CD which contains the whole concert performed by Gabriel Guillén (guitar) and v4m.strings.vienna under conductor Georg Kugi and - music minus one - only the orchestral part for training purposes.

Joseph Haydn: Concerto for Violoncello and Orchestra
C Major Hobb VII/1, arranged for Guitar by Jovan Pesec

The 1765 composed violoncello concerto was for a longer period of time reputed as missing, until it was found in a hand writen manuscript in the 1960s in the Prager National Museum. In 1962 , the concerto was performed very successfuly with the Czechoslovakia Radio Symphony Orchestra at the Prager Spring Concert and since then, has enjoyed great popularity among cello concerti, eventhough the technical requirements on the cellist are very demanding.
Impressed from a recording he heard from the cellist Mstislav Rostropovich, guitartist Gabriel Guillén encouraged composer Jovan Pesec to arrange this famous work for the guitar. For a long period of time Haydn´s demanding Violoncello Concerto was considered almost unplayable, which makes this composition even more difficult on the guitar, since the guitarist plays, along with the melody - which was taken over from the violoncello - an added bass line.
