History of the Spanish Guitar
The classical guitar is also known as the Spanish guitar. Many say that the guitar evolved in Spain. In the early days, when the lute was the popular instrument in Europe, Spaniards did not wish to use it. Instead, they decided to invent the guitarra.
The Guitarra
Originally, the guitarra had only four strings, instead of the six that there is in modern guitars today. Soon, two more strings were added to the guitar. Although many might think that was the final guitar, it was far from the final result. All of these strings were double strings, and they were also made out of gut. There were many versions of the guitarra. For example, there was a Guitarra Latina, which was the Latin Guitar. This guitar was not as smooth as the others, and had a more curved feature for the sides. Many say that because of this guitars unique features, it was originated somewhere else before it came to Spain. Another type of guitarra was the Guitarra Morisca. This guitar came to Spain by the Moors. The Moors also brought the lute to Spain later on in time, but because of a strained relationship, Spaniards would turn to the guitarra instead of the lute. The sound on this guitar was altered mainly by all the holes in it. For example, the sound box on the Guitarra Morisca was shaped as an oval. Also, all across the sound body of the guitar, there were numerous ovals all over it. The Guitarra kept on evolving. There were many altered editions that came out. For example, soon it was common to see the guitarra with three or five strings.
After the Guitarra
The instrument was later named as the vihuela after it contained six double strings. Soon after the vihuela guitar came the evolution of the classical guitar. Late in the 1770s, the early versions of the classical guitar became more and more popular. Many began to use these guitars at musical performances. In the past, romantic plays were part of the most common plays during the time period. The classical guitar began to become more and more common at these romantic performances. During the romantic time period, the classical guitar began to shine. Many even consider this the "Golden Age" for the classical guitar.
Classical Guitar
During the late 19th century, many started to write music just for the classical guitar. The classical guitar was on the rise, and the music began to get more popular. One of the main factors for the popularity of the music was the composers. In the past, the people who composed music for the classical guitar also played the classical guitar. But, the problem was that not all of them had immense knowledge for the classical guitar. Later on, not all composers could be able to play the instrument. They would simply get a musician to play, but use their knowledge about music to compose great songs.
Notable Spanish Composers
Among many of the famous Spanish composers and guitarists are: Andrs Segovia, Federico Moreno Torroba, Joaquin Rodrigo, Paco De Lucia, and Grisha Goryachev.
