Flavio Nati - Guerra-Peixe: Complete Solo Guitar Music - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Duarte's Partita was completed in 1974. It's a substantial work in four movements, using all original material. As in the Variations on a Theme of Štepan Rak he adopts a four-note motif, which may be heard forwards, backwards, inverted and stretched. Variations on an Italian Folk Song Op. 139 was written in 2000. It draws on the second movement, InchCanzonaInch, of Duarte's prior Suite piemontese, which was based on a combination of two tunes Il testamento dell'avvelenato and Re Gilardin. This gentle theme is characterised by simple movements of a step or a fourth. The six variations all begin with this stepwise movement but they quickly gain individual characters. Valse lyrique (2000) is one of the three short dances Duarte wrote late in his career. The second theme, clearly derived from the first, includes some hemiolas as well as combined harmonics and natural notes. The central section features the melody in the bass. Valse en rondeau was written in 1997 for the American guitarist David Starobin. Duarte stated InchI decided to make reference to my origin as a jazz musician and to my interest in early music (the Rondeau form) and to exercise my unshakeable belief in melody.Inch The origin of the Variations on a Theme of Štepan Rak Op. 100 is unique. In 1984, Rak was staying with Duarte when Vladimir Mikulka performed a lunchtime concert in London. At the end of the concert, Mikulka announced that he was going to perform an unusual encore - a theme, but without variations that had yet to be written. Afterwards he announced that Rak, Koshkin and Duarte should exchange themes with each other to create six new variation works, and he presented Duarte with Rak's theme on a piece of manuscript paper. Andres Segovia, a supreme Anglophile, married his third wife in Gibraltar (Inchunder the British flag, on Spanish soilInch), and their son was born in London. Duarte's 3 S

Virtuoso accordionist, fiddler and bandleader Sharon Shannon has walked a brave and personal path through traditional Irish music, inventively fusing with reggae rhythms, rock backbeats, and the aching twang of American country and bluegrass. She continues to defy and redefine musical boundaries with her latest album, the stunningly diverse LIBERTANGO. a year's worth of touring recording with Sinead O'Connor has lead Shannon to rediscover the role of female vocalists in her own music, leading to several stirring encounters here. O'Connor guest on two traditional songs, while the much-missed Kirsty McColl delivers the title track, a tango by the great Argentine composer Astor Piazolla.

After three years traveling the world endlessly, the musical diversity that Rancid illustrates in this masterpiece speaks for itself. While it might bring back nostalgic Warped Tour memories for some, for others (including a lot of musicians) InchLife Won't WaitInch took an eager and anxious group of diehards off-guard and pleasantly surprised them by really drawing from their roots and spilling out this coup of an album in a big way. Adorned in six new sleeves, and remastered for vinyl by Pirates Press, this version - like this album - is something special. 7Inch pack is bound together with a collectible, printed, faux leather obi-strip and is limited to 1,000 copies.
