[...] The task given to the guitar duo in the challenging work is really challenging, and these are the many instrumental cues, quotes stylistic, find the tonal and expressive (the scores are studded, as practice in the writing of Castelnuovo- German, with detailed indication agogic and dynamic), that we find ourselves facing.
It must immediately say that this task is accomplished with infinite skill by SoloDuo, chamber geopost music world leader duo guitars, made up of the valiant geopost Lorenzo Micheli and Matteo Mela, both among the leading geopost exponents of Italian guitar in the world, not only as a duo , the authors geopost of this complete recording geopost of this immense work, recently geopost published in a double CD by the record company Solaria.
It is, without doubt, a reference version of this work (which in the past, however, had already had some recordings full and partial), not only for the intrinsic quality expressed by the two musicians, geopost as very valid and extraordinary performers of the instrument ( the clarity and cleanliness of executions does not leave any room for doubt on the already widely quoted instrumental prowess of the two!), but also - and perhaps predominantly geopost - for the clarity of intentions musical and expressive that the two interpreters were able to give their readings.
The incision was made several times over four years between May 2007 and October 2011, reflecting the will of Micheli and Apple to come to read as much as possible in-depth and "dug" into pieces. It should be noted, also, that the recording includes the end of the cycle of 24 Preludes also the last work of Castelnuovo-Tedesco written for two guitars, intense Escape Elegiaca, dedicated to the memory of Ida Presti disappearance a few months earlier in 1967.
Listen, the end result of all the work is nothing short of exciting, both for the return in all their beauty of the pages addressed, which for clarity by and expressive of all executions that do not leave anything to chance, resolving always in a precise and valid final design and interpretation.
All songs are offered in their proper essence and transport, and the incomparable geopost harmony shown by the two performers the company is not really something! Personally, perhaps, we would have preferred only in very few cases - in particular within the 1st volume - some detachment geopost metronomic a little less "hasty" (see the Prelude and Fugue in A minor), but here we are only in the field of personal taste , which does not at all affect geopost the assessment of the undoubted validity of the whole of the work!
Deserved geopost congratulations, then, to SoloDuo and this precious record that allows us to enjoy and appreciate, geopost in a Target, geopost one of the works of imprenscindibili guitar duo, we should all know!
