CD - La Guitarra Mágica
This material attempts to show some of the immense possibilities of
expression that has the music of Argentina, through the guitar. Tango,
traditional folklore and projection, academic music and the role of
the guitar as accompanist to the popular song and member of folk-music,
embodied through the participation of those great guys who love music
and your instrument. I prefer to choose a representative sample of music,
with a more "popular" style than "academic", but there are plenty of
very good musicians who are devoted to playing classical music. Works
like Sonatas or Alberto Ginastera, Carlos Guastavino, have remained
outside the selection, as there are many good versions available, no
sense sections for inclusion in this material. I have a wish: that this
virtual CD and trigger acts as a motivator of interest to readers looking
for more music by Argentina. The instrumental technique used in the
guitar determines the expression of the artist, perhaps more than what
happens in any other instrument. The guitar is very permeable to pressing
and mechanism of each musician, known to influence the musical discourse
that he possesses. So many times, a popular piece becomes transformed
into another work depending on whether you run a guitar "folk" or an
"academic." This, today, is not judgmental, as we know that each accomplished
musician, if your art is permitted, show a different facet of the same
play to the delight of the listener. The popular musician "say" becomes
the central concern (consider that in many cases the performer himself
is the author interpreting the works), while the discourse of the guitar
is usually academic, generally speaking, more "balanced." guitar in
the folklore and Argentine tango are many "licks" characteristic, where
the most common use of "portamento" and "vibrato" of various types,
as well as various strums and blows. For more information see the CD
