Habanera 26
[Solo Guitar]
"Philip Sills has the knack of writing melodically interesting pieces with appealing rhythms and nice harmonies all within the parameters of the Intermediate player. I have yet to come across anything of his which is not worth listening to; indeed he has the respect of the likes of David Russell and Paul Gregory, both of whom play some of his works on You Tube. Habanera 26 (so called because it is the 26th piece in Les Production d'Oz's 25th Anniversary Anthology edition) follows Sills' style of writing where a nice tune floats above a relatively sparse accompaniment obviously written in the alluring fashion of the habanera. Starting in E minor and changing to D minor half-way through, this particular composition would make a good candidate to introduce the student player of around Grade 5 to the intricacies of this style of playing."
