Das Album enthält auch Sylvius Leopold Weiss' Passagaille, gespielt auf einer 13-saitigen Gitarre, und Bachs Ciaccona, eine der emotional tiefsten Kompositionen der Musikgeschichte. Fernando Sors Marlbrough s'en va-t-en guerre mit fünf Variationen über ein populäres Thema verdeutlicht Sors nachhaltigen Einfluss auf die Gitarrenmusik.
