Hughes Kolp, guitare \u00e0 10 cordes – Magali Rischette, guitare \u00e0 6 cordes – Adrien Brogna, guitare \u00e0 8 cordes<\/strong><\/p>\n

In CORPUS, Magali Rischette, Hughes Kolp and Adrien Brogna present their arrangements of compositions by Granados, Alb\u00e9niz, de Falla and Turina. The link between the guitar and the country of Spain is so intense that the adaptation of these works originally conceived for piano or for orchestra finds in their version for 3 guitars an amazing character of authenticity. Spain appears in its diversity and in its splendor all over the 9 compositions of CORPUS. It is a farruca<\/em>, a jota<\/em> and a zortziko<\/em> transformed into three Danzas fant\u00e1sticas<\/em> for piano under Turina\u2019s pen, it is the bullfighter\u2019s prayer<\/em> of the same Turina, it is the impressive narration that Alb\u00e9niz gives of a religious procession in Sevilla\u2026<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

> Let\u2019s take this opportunity to highlight the decisive action of composer and musicologist Felipe Pedrell in the growing awareness of a musical heritage that these four composers would explore with fervor. Pedrell also understands perfectly the importance of guitarist Francisco T\u00e1rrega when he writes, in 1915, \u00ab he made an instrument whose resources seem apparently so poor, one of the most expressive musical instruments.\u201d<\/p>\n

One might wonder, however, to which guitar does Manuel de Falla refer, in 1933, in his prologue to Pujol\u2019s 3rd<\/sup> volume of Escuela razonada de <\/em>la guitarra<\/em>? He evokes an \u201cadmirable instrument, as sober as rich, which harshly or gently knows how to subjugate the spirit and in which, time helping, came to focus, as a rich heritage, all of the essential values \u200b\u200bof noble instruments of yore without interfering in any way in the true character due to its origin, the people itself\u201d. Does Falla mean the revolutionary guitar by luthier Antonio de Torres or the street instrument, song and dance accompanist, “which has always occupied a favorite place in the sound space of the Hispanic home\u201c? It now seems obvious that neither the so-called \u201cclassical guitar\u201d \u2013 I mean its construction and its technique – nor the knowledge that these composers had of it, would have been able to work together, at the time, in order to achieve a real fusion between the \u201cnational instrument\u201d and the nationalist musical expression. For lack of substantial repertoire, guitarists themselves write for their instrument or arrange topical works. So does T\u00e1rrega: amongst more than 200 transcriptions are six pieces for piano by his friend Alb\u00e9niz. Miguel Llobet, one of T\u00e1rrega\u2019s disciples, adapts for his guitar compositions for piano by Granados and by Alb\u00e9niz. Composers and guitarists know each other. Granados frequents the so-called \u201cvaqueria\u201d in Barcelona where T\u00e1rrega, Llobet and later Segovia used to perform.<\/p>\n

At this point of its history, the \u201cmodern\u201d guitar makes timid debuts on the classical scene. In 1920, Manuel de Falla composed his Homenaje<\/em> to the memory of Claude Debussy, his unique piece originally written for the guitar. Its dedicatee, Miguel Llobet, plays it immediately in the concerts that he gives through Europe and South America but it is a harpist, Marie-Louise Casadesus-Beetz, who premieres it in Paris on January 24th 1921! Finally, another disciple of T\u00e1rrega<\/em>, Emilio Pujol, plays it on the guitar in the Salle du Conservatoire on December 2nd 1922.<\/p>\n

As to Joaqu\u00edn Turina, in November 1923 he writes his first composition for the guitar, a Fantasia<\/em> entitled Sevillana<\/em>. It is dedicated to Segovia who premieres it Madrid one month later. On April 7th 1924, Albert Roussel, Joaquin Nin, Paul Dukas and Manuel de Falla are present in Madame Debussy\u2019s box seats at Segovia\u2019s debuts in Paris in the prestigious Salle du<\/em> Conservatoire<\/em>. His program features a short piece by Albert Roussel archly entitled Segovia<\/em>\u2026<\/p>\n
