About this product
The album consists of five triptychs written for solo guitar in the 20th century by composers representing various areas of musical culture. The album opens with a work by Tansman, which references the compositions of Frédéric Chopin. Rodrigo's composition strictly follows his characteristic musical language, based on stylizations of dances and motifs drawn from Spanish tradition. Torroba's suite is a tribute to the music of the Castilian region, an emotional, virtuosic work with playful elements. The miniatures by Henz, with their dreamlike, meditative character, bear the mark of the versatile German composer's personal style, whose musical language combines elements of expressionism, twelve-tone technique, neoclassicism, and tonality. The final work on the album is by Barrios Mangoré, the Paraguayan guitarist and most prominent composer of his country, whose piece borders between the sacred and the profane, containing elements of Baroque virtuosity. Andrzej Grygier is one of the most outstanding classical guitarists of his generation, a laureate of prestigious guitar competitions worldwide, and this album confirms his virtuosic skill and musical sensitivity.

Guitar Evol.3ution + Orchestra is already our third album meeting with great guitarist Piotr Przedbora, at the same time the first with orchestra, conducted by Krzysztof Penderecki, Maciej Tworek, and Dawid Runtz. The lovers of Krzysztof Penderecki's work already know the versions of the Concerto per Viola ed Orchestra in arrangements for cello, clarinet, or saxophone. The extraordinary guitar transcription by Piotr Przedbora joins this group, extending the instrumental amplitude and offering a completely new sound quality. In Arioso e furioso by Mikolaj Górecki we are going to hear a completely different aesthetics, based on an unhurriedly developing narrative plenty of dissonances, episodically disturbing the harmony. The Concerto for Guitar, Timpani, and Strings, Op. 115 by Krzysztof Meyer is an example of a neoclassical view on the form of instrumental concerto, brimming with rhythmic expression and numerous virtuoso elements. One of the most interesting and charismatic guitarists in Poland. Three outstanding concertos and composers who do not need to be introduced K. Penderecki, K. Meyer, M. Górecki. The excellent Jerzy Semkow Polish Orchestra Sinfonia Iuventus, led by superb conductors. Last but not least, a groundbreaking album for the entire community of classical guitar.
