Par PUJOL MAXIMO DIEGO. Les Suites del Plata s'inspirent de la suite de danses, forme instrumentale très en vogue pendant la période baroque, qui était une série de danses populaires de différentes parties de l'Europe, toutes liées par un élément mélodique-rythmique et précédées d'un prélude. Les Suites del Plata rassemblent des pièces musicales de la région connue sous le nom de 'La Cuenca del Plata', un vaste bassin autour du Rio de la Plata et ses affluents, dans lequel une riche et abondante variété de danses, de formes et de styles de musique populaire a émergé et existe encore aujourd'hui. Dans la Suite n°4, une chanson 'littorale' (de la música litoraleña), 'Olor a domingo' (Odeur du dimanche), fonctionne comme un prélude et décrit l'atmosphère d'un dimanche après-midi calme et chaleureux. 'Urgente' (Urgent) est un tango qui nous fait découvrir le vertige et la folie d'une grande ville. 'Nublado' (Nuageux) est une milonga campagnarde par un après-midi gris dans l'immensité de la Pampa. 'San Cristobal' est une valse créole qui nous emmène dans l'un des quartiers les plus traditionnels de Buenos Aires. Cette suite se termine par 'En alpargatas' (en sandales de toile), un malambo, une danse pampéenne ancienne et traditionnelle à exécuter par un seul homme, dans laquelle le danseur montre son talent et son courage. Las Suites del Plata toman como modelo las Suite de Danzas, forma instrumental muy en boga durante el período Barroco, que era una serie de danzas populares de distintas partes de Europa, todas relacionadas por algún elemento melódico - rítmico y precedidas por un Preludio. Las Suites del Plata reúnen piezas musicales provenientes del área conocida como 'La Cuenca del Plata', una extensa geografía alrededor del Río de la Plata y sus afluentes, en la que surgió - y aún hoy conviven - una rica y abundante variedad de danzas, géneros y estilos populares. En la Suite del Plata n°4, una canción litoraleña, 'Olor a domingo', funciona como Preludio y nos describe el ambiente de una tranquila y calurosa tarde de domingo. 'Urgente' es un tango que nos introduce en el vértigo y la locura de una gran ciudad. 'Nublado' es una milonga campera en una tarde gris en la inmensidad de la Pampa. 'San Cristóbal' es un vals criollo que nos interna en uno de los más tradicionales barrios de Buenos Aires. Cierra esta obra 'En alpargatas', un Malambo, una vieja y tradicional danza pampeana para ser ejecutada por un hombre solo, en la que el bailarín muestra su destreza y coraje./ Répertoire / Guitare
