The Guitar Book No. 7, which is designed for pupils in their study for the Intermediate Certificate awarded by Greek Conservatories, contains pieces entailing even greater difficulties in technique and performance than those presented in the earlier volumes. Here I should like to remind students that the purpose of this series of books is the publication of works which, on the one hand, encompass the whole range of music written for the guitar, and on the other augment the guitar repertoire with selected and original compositions.

Several of the pieces appearing in this book, which comprises over 31 works by composers of all periods, are presented for the first time.

I extend my gratitude to my students Manolis Vrontinos, Vassiliki Leondari, Yannis Lygerakis and Virginia Amariotaki who helped with the proof reading as well as my friend Peter Segal for the editing in English version.
