Duo Renda-Trucco- Italian Perspectives - 20th & 21st Centuries Works for Two Guitars
SKU: 8011570372574
The album's repertoire explores music for two guitars written by Italian composers over the last 50 years. The peculiarity of this program lies in it's eclectic variety, which ranges from more traditional influences, rooted in the past, to distinctly contemporary expressions, exploring in which ways the guitar duo has been approached by different authors. This album features prestigious names: Franco Donatoni, one of the most important Italian composers of the second half of the 20th century; Alvaro Company, guitarist and composer, among the most authoritative students of the famous Spanish guitarist Andres Segovia; Giorgio Colombo Taccani, an extremely active composer in the contemporary music scene, awarded in 2023 with the Golden Guitar for Composition, awarded as part of the 28th International Guitar Conference in Milan. The album boasts numerous first ever recordings: Algo n. 2 by Franco Donatoni, Sonata II by Franco Margola, Colloquio by Bianca Maria Furgeri, Winter day by Vittorio Fellegara, Piccoli rainbowi by Gilberto Bosco, as well as Ricercare by Aldo Clementi, recorded for the first time in the version for two guitars elaborated by Andrea Monarda. Furthermore, Consonancias y Redobles by Azio Corghi (a piece with several possible instrumental destinations) is recorded for the first time by a guitar duo. This project finally marks the recovery of a piece of great value. An image (thinking of Schubert) of Alvaro Company, until now neglected by the guitar world.
