Anton Diabelli is a guitar composer who differs in many respects from the usual guitar composer of the early nineteenth century. Most of the music he wrote was not for the guitar. He was active as a proof reader, publisher and in these capacities learned to know many leading musical personalities, such as Beethoven and Schubert, and had in many ways a central role in the music business in Vienna. Whereas guitar composers were usually players themselves, Diabelli’s activity as a performing artist is unknown. This catalogue details all the known works by Anton Diabelli for the guitar, the original as well as the arrangements, in many different forms.
