Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) is often considered after the death of Debussy in 1918 to be the leading French composer of the 1920’s and 30’s. Earlier in his career he had caused consternation in the highly conservative pre-war French musical establishment with his unmistakable and highly original style.His most famous work is his Bolero which marks the pinnacle of his compositional career. Commissioned as a single-movement orchestral ballet in 1928 by Ida Rubenstein Ravel himself is said to have commented on it by saying: 'I've written only one masterpiece...Unfortunately there's no music init.'Bolero has been re-arranged many times most notably for Torvill and Dean in their world-record ice skating routine. This arrangement is for solo Piano.

The book Método de Mandolina begins at the very beginning of learning to play the mandolin starting with the basic tuning of the instrument how to sit position one?s head and hold one?s hands. There are many pages of exercises that lead to easy pieces and more difficult short works all in Spanish style.In this age of the Guitar it is remarkable to know that the mandolin was the most popular instrument throughout the Western world at the turn of the last century at the time of the publication of this book. For the most part at that time the virtuosi were considered to be Italian and the best instruments from Italian makers though many other companies were involvedin the production of many forms of the mandolin. This is ironic however as it is frequently asserted that the earliest form of lute or mandolin entered Europe with the Moors onto the Iberian peninsula in the shape of the oud. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries serious composers included lute parts in their major works and wrote pieces expressly for mandolinists and for the thousands of mandolin Orchestras that sprang up throughout Europe and in the New World. That Método de Mandolina remains available is a testament to its usefulness and the expertise of its author in giving teachers and students a volume from which to teach and learn.

I. Rêverie / II. Capriccio. Par CASABLANCAS BENET. Work commissioned by the pianists Iván Martín and Alba Ventura, on the occasion of the commemoration of the Centenary of Enric Granados (2016), and lasts approximately 10 minutes. It comprises two pieces of very contrasting character. The first, Rêverie, is a nocturne with broad resonances that unfolds in a recollected and expectant atmosphere, presided over by a lyrical expression and contemplative sign, scarcely disturbed by more passionate outbursts. Its cantabile course and precious writing conceal veiled references to the poetic and pianistic universe of Granados, including a hidden allusion to the musical acrostic of his name (made up of the notes Do-Mi [EnriC] and Sol-La-Re-Mib [GrAnaDoS]), which confers a special luminosity to its harmonic material. The Capriccio that follows lives up to its name with a more virtuosic and vigorous writing, with playful and colourful rhythmic accents, which drifts in its central part towards the dreamlike and ecstatic register that presided over some sections of the Rêverie, to conclude with a brilliant stretta. The premieres of the two pieces that make up the present work took place on 20 January 2016 at the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona (Capriccio) and on 14 April 2016 at the Auditori de Barcelona (Rêverie), starring Iván Martín and Alba Ventura, respectively. Both pieces are contemporaries of the 'Romanza sin palabras', for chamber ensemble, commissioned by The City University of New York on the occasion of the celebration of the Granados Year in New York, and premiered on 10 March 2016 at the Elebash Recital Hall of the CUNY by the Perspectives Ensemble (art. dir. Sato Moughalian), conducted by Ángel Gil-Ordóñez. The work is dedicated to Maneleta Domingo, María Lourdes Antràs and Virginia Casablancas. / Date parution : 2022-04-01/ Répertoire / Piano

For the first time this edition presents work for Guitar solo and for Guitar duet by Graciano Tarragó grouped into different collections. Despite the fact that the composer published the set of works separately (with the exception of the collections of studies and the Catalan Christmas songs) it is not difficult to see that a natural classification surges from its formal structure from its source of inspiration and from its intent upon observing the works as a whole.The main objective of this revision was to update its presentation to meet the demands of the Guitar world today and to offer scores that ease the introduction to the study of this copious collectionof works. The works hold an indisputable musical beauty and demand technical virtuosic knowledge of the highest level.

El Album De Cecilia Para Guitarra is a collection of six pieces for solo Guitar. It was composed in 1948 and is named for the composer’s daughter and only child. St Cecilia is the patron saint of music and fittingly Rodrigo was born on St Cecilia’s day November 22nd. Joaquin Rodrigo (1901-1999) was born in Valencia and lost his sight to diphtheria at the age of three which is believed to have heightened his hearing and inspired him to pursue a musical career. He began to study music five years later and became one of Spain’s most distinguished composers musicologists and pedagogues.

Three Interludes For Orchestra by Benet Casablancas was commissioned by Fundación Autor and the Spanish Association of Symphonic Orchestras (AEOS) for its World Premiere in the 2012-2013 season.The score consists of three movements – Pastorale (Tranquillo) Scherzo (Con moto) and Memento e Corale (Lentissimo Ampio e tenuto) – and has an approximate duration of 14 minutes. The spaciousness and transparency of its textures the clearness of its harmony and a general calm and quiet tone of the first and final parts set a contrast with the vigour and rhythmical vividness of its central scherzo.During the course of the piece the shape of chamber writing coexists with the greatness of orchestral peaks. The last section embraces a lower and expressive tone which ends with a great chorale that will lead to a more contemplative coda which fades into silence. Sadness for the devastating tsunami that struck Japan on those same days was present in the mind of the author at the time of writing this movement.“It shows the accused dramatic quality (especially in the third piece) which dominate the orchestral writing of the composer from Sabadell enriched by a pitch atmosphere of neo-impressionistic quality and a healthy rhythmical energy. The concert version contributed with intensity and performance depth which we hope to deepen in future performances and which motivated the greeting of Casablancas.” - Germán Gan Audio Clásica
