Likable album.

Simon Wynberg – A Bach Recital. Amazing dexterity and good sense of time.

[Dry Brett Kavanaugh]

Carlo Domeniconi - Sindbad. Guitar and composition: Carlo Domeniconi.
Ambitious and exquisite composition. Impeccable execution.

Ambitious and exquisite composition. Impeccable execution.

Hadn't heard of him before now.  Did a bit of googling on youtube and found an upload of it.  Currently listening to and enjoying the first part ("Baghdad").

I wish the cover art were more aesthetic. It doesn't do justice for the music.

Just listened to this:



There is a joyous, charming selection of five Contradanzas from the 51 by Manuel Saumell. I wish someone would record the whole batch in a complete edition. It might be too much to listen to 51 of these super tuneful works in a row, but I want to find out!

(Also, Brouwer is one of the great living genius musicians so his recordings are essential as either composer or pianist - or in this case, both!)

In light of my "de Falla" guitar transcriptions discoveries, I might now be perusing this thread.

Listened to this one yesterday for the first time in years. A gorgeous antidote to Scott Ross

Oh?  No love for Scott Ross on the harpsichord?

Oh no, I love Scott Ross, Ray. I just wasn't in the mood for his style yesterday. I enjoyed Tipo's and the above instead

I was convinced that I had that CD in my collection but it appears not to be so.

Carlo Domeniconi - Sindbad. Guitar and composition: Carlo Domeniconi.
Ambitious and exquisite composition. Impeccable execution.

This new recording of it comes out March 24th. Based on his other Domeniconi release, this should be an automatic purchase! (Although the "World Premiere" statement is obviously not accurate.)

If the CD is hard to find/pricey, it's available on Qobuz and presumably other streaming platforms. I love it!

Loeillet: Cibel

Cheers and thank you.

Sadly, Gilardino died a little over a year ago. He wrote well over 100 high quality works for solo guitar, guitar ensembles, chamber music, and concertos. His music is freely tonal and often makes huge demands on the players. Some of the works on this recording have a manic intensity. I streamed it on Qobuz.

[Brahmsian]

Well...I did my first perusal of this classical guitar thread.

This is really good. This guy is the real deal - poetic, graceful touch and many of his own transcriptions. Much of the repertoire is romantic rather than overtly virtuoso. I say that, but the next track is the Rachmaninov so I could be wrong!
