Immerse yourself in the intricate and sumptuous world of Silvius Leopold Weiss, the greatest lutenist of all time, with the album "Weiss: Lute Works." Released on August 14, 2020, under the Naxos label, this collection showcases the virtuosity and elegance of Weiss's compositions, masterfully arranged for guitar by Danijel Cerović.
