The First Concerto Op. 48 by Ernest Shand represents the first composition in this genre by a British composer. It is a traditional work that exhibits resource and originality and reflects Shand’s evolving style. Unity of form was less important to him than colour and melody, and he preferred to introduce new themes rather than develop existing ideas. The scoring is diaphanous, imaginatively conceived to enhance the guitar’s tonal qualities. It is this harmonious balance between the guitar and the accompaniment that contributes to the Concerto’s success.
