Fernando Sor's 'Valses (6) for 2 guitars, Op. 39' is a collection of six waltzes composed for two guitars. The work was composed in the early 19th century, around 1820, and was first published in Paris in 1821. The premiere of the work is not known, but it is likely that Sor himself performed the work with another guitarist. The six waltzes in the collection are each in a different key and have their own unique character. The first waltz, in E major, is a lively and joyful piece with a playful melody. The second waltz, in A minor, is more melancholic and introspective, with a slower tempo and a more somber melody. The third waltz, in D major, is a bright and cheerful piece with a lively rhythm and a catchy melody. The fourth waltz, in G major, is a more complex piece with a more intricate melody and a more varied rhythm. The fifth waltz, in C major, is a gentle and romantic piece with a flowing melody and a delicate texture. The final waltz, in E minor, is a lively and energetic piece with a fast tempo and a lively rhythm. Overall, the 'Valses (6) for 2 guitars, Op. 39' is a charming and delightful collection of waltzes that showcases Sor's skill as a composer and his understanding of the guitar. The work is characterized by its lively rhythms, catchy melodies, and intricate harmonies, and is a testament to Sor's mastery of the guitar as both a solo and ensemble instrument.
