Any works in classical cannon for guitar & piano that are not simply arr. of other works
there MUST be something out there!

Your wife plays the guitar?

haha nice try Fred! No but I recently met a very charming classical guitarist and we both have had very little luck in finding any substantial works that are NOT arrangements and often bad ones at that

Walking down through IMSLP's catalog via instrumentation there is:

B

• 2 Ballet Airs from Rossini's 'Mosè in Egitto', Op.28 (Carcassi, Matteo)
  Barcarole, Op.41 (Mertz, Johann Kaspar)

D

• Divertissement on 'Rigoletto', Op.60 (Mertz, Johann Kaspar)
  Duet for Guitar and Piano on an Air from 'La Sonnambula' by Bellini, Op.30 (Pettoletti, Pietro)
  Duos Nocturnes, Op.189 (Carulli, Ferdinando)

P

• Pot-Pourri for Guitar and Piano, Op.53 (Hummel, Johann Nepomuk)

S

• Sonatina for Guitar and Piano, Op.8 (Gaul, Konstantin Joachim)

W

• Wasserfahrt am Traunsee (Mertz, Johann Kaspar)

The link below has about 50 excellent works by Diabelli, Giuliani, Neuland, and various others. Most of them aren't on IMSLP.
Ponce's Guitar Sonata is also a suggestion.

Thank you Sgambatiesque & Timtin:)

Many of the composers you mentioned have been useful! I came across Radames Gnattali whose music is wonderful also!

Hi:

I'm looking for a trio or string quartet (with or without piano), that includes guitar.

The idea is to start with some compositions that do not have great difficulty.

Does anybody help me with some hints?

Thank you,

ILU.
