About this product
Among the most extensive works here is the cycle of Cantos Desiertos (1996) composed for flute and guitar by Terry Riley. The cycle was later incorporated within The Book of Abbeyzoud, an album with a character suspended between the Biblical, the mystical and the exotic. Francesco en Paraiso is a tender memorial to the countertenor Frank Royon Le Mée (1952-1993). The cycle continues with an Indian melody, and a melancholy lament before ending with a sultry Tango Ladeado (Tango Off-Centre). Hardly less substantial is Muse of Fire (1990) by George Rochberg, written in the shadow of the Gulf War hence the sudden stops and starts, the military evocations, the funeral marches, the moments of dream-like lyricism and the rhapsodic soliloquies. Ora pro nobis (1991) is based on the slow movement of Bach's Italian Concerto a plea for at a deeply troubled time. Bateau is a song from the 2003 album Ceramic Dog by Marco Ribot, who works mostly with jazz and post-rock musicians this is the work's first performance on classical guitar, and Alberto Mesirca brings out the delicate textures that evoke light shimmering on water. Of similar aquatic origins, Fish Tale is a 'watercolor for flute and guitar' by Osvaldo Golijov 'I wanted everything to be beautiful,' said the composer, 'even at the expense of some sense.' This unique compilation concludes with shorter solo pieces alternating between flute and guitar, taking in the satisfyingly intricate textures of Crawford Seeger and Wuorinen at each end of American modernism, as well as a touching elegy by Mark Delpriora in memory of a student of his, Basil Keiser. This is the third solo album on Brilliant Classics by the guitarist Alberto Mesirca after his collections of music by Regondi and Sanz.

Born in Molfetta (Italy) on June 21, 1931, don Salvatore has undertaken the priestly life uniting it deeply to the musical one. Together with the ecclesial experience of assistant FUCI (Italian Catholic University Federation) in the post-conciliar years and that of director of the Schola Cantorum of the Pontifical Regional Seminary of Molfetta, he built his musical training with the masters Armando Renzi (composition), Nicola Samale (conducting), Michele Marvulli, Marcel Couraud (perfecting choral conducting), Luigi Celeghin. He has taught at the Conservatories InchE.R. DuniInch in Matera and InchN. PiccinniInch in Bari; he has been at the head of the Choir and Orchestra InchJ. SalepicoInch, an institution born within the Association and Popular School InchA. DvorakInch of which he was founder and president until his death. He has been Maestro di Cappella of the Cathedral Chapter of Molfetta. Graduated in composition, conducting, piano and specialized in choral and organ conducting, he wanted to make up for the scarce musical and liturgical knowledge of the people, dedicating himself with passion and sacrifice to the young generations of his territory, building an associative and training experience so deep to constitute a generation of musicians that still today recognize him as their mentor and teacher. The fruits of his artistic genius are numerous and of various kinds, from oratorios to popular songs; but of particular interest are his two Oratories, the two Great Cantatas for Choir and Orchestra, as well as Masses and motets. He was a man of high perspicacity, a concrete visionary, able to see things in depth and projected into the future; acute intellectual, he has always fought, driven by the insatiable need for knowledge without ever giving up the ancient.
