Let us celebrate the new academic year with music sharing and a friendly reception!
I am very happy to play in the city where I have the privilege to teach to the professional guitar class of Gent KASK School of Arts Conservatorium (together with Professor Yves Storms!) !
For all guitar and music lovers… 😉

The program of the recital will be a tribute to some of my favourite composers from the guitar repertoire.

Content of the program :
An ideal opening with Sainz de la Maza’s Campanas del alba : the daybreak and its bells anounce a romantic melody expressed by the tremolo technique, in which pure melancholy is healed by a wind of hope !

Follows the beautiful homage of Mexican composer Manuel Ponce to baroque music, with his Suite Antica, published at the time under the name of Weiss and written for Andrés Segovia, who wanted to enrich the guitar repertoire…behind the baroque forms, the latin lyricism and the vivacity of Ponce!

Italy and classical Luigi Legnani : virtuosity, fantasy, humour, panache! A priceless contribution to the development of guitar playing in the 19th century…

Albéniz and his penetrating Spanish melodies sound so well on the guitar, pure lyricism, passion and sensuousness.

Emilio Pujol, student of Tarrega, developed the harmonic language with his miniatures where his deep soul always pervades.

Impressionistic Asencio reveals the unlimited colours of the guitar in a suttle piece dedicated to his town…the sea, the serenity, the fire of folk Spanish dances through the prisma of the stunning harmonies of the master.

To end, Brazil and Costa Rica : energy, fantasy, groove, sensuousness, love, Garoto’s tender homage to his master…typically celebrating with the latin spirit the joy and wonder of being alive… let your 2018-2019 challenges be rich, successfull and vibrating!
