This dreamy
Brazilian samba sets the
haunting melody of
Chopin’s Prelude
#4 as a background to a
beautiful Trombone
feature that takes us
through a lushly-scored
journey of a life well
lived, as it soars to a
joyous, half-time funk
groove before winding
back down to an
introspective end will
truly leave the audience
floating. All rhythm
parts are completely
written out, with
suggested solos
included.
Following
the successful
publication of
Homenaje a Rodrigo
(2015), containing four
pieces by Alessandro
Spazzoli – one of
which was performed in
the presence of the
composer’s
daughter, Cecilia
Rodrigo, during her visit
to the International
Convention in Alessandria
–, here is the
second volume. It
contains more tributes to
Rodrigo written on my
input by five well-known
Italian and Spanish
composers, two of whom
are also guitarists and
have therefore written
the fingering for their
own pieces. Giovanni
Podera plunges us into a
typically Rodrigo-like
atmosphere with his
evocative
Fantasia, while
the following three
compositions are full of
direct quotations from
pieces also for guitar by
the great composer from
Valencia. Thus, Marco
Simoni, in his expressive
Junto a Rodrigo
– which also
provides the title to the
volume – plays
with themes taken from
Junto al
Generalife and from
Dos piezas
caballerescas for a
cello ensemble as well as
hinting at reminiscences
of Tiento antiguo.
As for Marco Smaili, in
his impressionistic
Fronda de la
tarde, he evokes
quite evidently
Zarabanda lejana
and Invocación y
Danza, but there are
more hidden references to
Caminos de
Santiago and even to
the very famous
Concierto de
Aranjuez. Marco
Reghezza builds his
heart-breaking Nana
estrellada on a
sequence of chords used
by Rodrigo in the
fantasia ¡Que buen
caminito!. On the
other hand, there are no
direct quotations and
echoes of
Rodrigo’s way of
writing in the Fuga a
quattro voci by Paolo
Ugoletti. However it was
Rodrigo himself who
constructed four-part
imitative passages for
guitar in
Pasacalle and in
the Ricercare of the
Fantasia para un
Gentilhombre. The
close polyphony of the
piece by Ugoletti may be
considered as a tribute
to this kind of craft
shown by Rodrigo who,
like Ugoletti, was able
to write such dense and
idiomatic counterpoint
without being a
guitar-player. I am
pleased that this volume
comes out in the
imminence of the 20th
anniversary of the
disappearance of the
illustrious Spanish
composer who gave so much
to the musicians –
and not only to
them. (Piero
Bonaguri)

In my
opinion our world is
currently in great need
of reestablishing strong
connections one to
another, be it with
family and friends,
neighbors and strangers,
nations and nations, or
with those of different
cultures and religions.
In his important book, I
and Thou,
philosopher-theologian
Martin Buber says that
the most meaningful life
is centered on
relationship. As a
musician, I felt
compelled to express the
I-THOU thesis through the
human voice. In searching
for the right words to
express this sentiment, I
was fortunate to find
Kazuaki
Tanahashi’s
eloquent poem,
“Encounter.â€
Mr. Tanahashi is a poet,
Zen artist, scholar and
peace activist. This
combined-voices version
has been adapted from an
SATB scoring that
features prominently in

quartet, commissioned and
premiered in 2018 by
Fourth Coast Ensemble in

string quartet (2014) is

My first
violin concerto, The
Psalms of Taciturnity,
describes the inner
feelings that cannot be
expressed verbally, but
that also cannot remain
unexpressed. There is the
human spirit's pain,
sorrow and fortitude in
the face of this big
quandry. The Psalms stand
for the praise of
humanity and of life. And
so in this concerto, the
Psalms are lacking in
words, but are full of
music. (Ye
Shen)

Comtemporary. Solo part

Published by Cherry
Classics (CY.CC2769).
As the title
suggests the work dying
and dancing for Euphonium
solo and Piano
accompaniment is in two
parts, which are played
without a pause between
the two.
The
first part, an adagio, is
not necessarily meant to
be evocative of the
actual act of passing
away, but more perhaps of
the contemplation and
reflection upon one's
life as that time
approaches, and
particularly of sorrow
over regret and
disappointment. The
unsettled mood of the
music reflects this
bitterness, and stands in
contrast to the expansive
peace of the grave, heard
at the beginning and end
of the
adagio.
Dance,
with ironic wit, the
second part, is the other
side of the same coin;
perhaps humor of the
gallows describes its
spirit. At once fatalist
and mocking, it brings to
mind the words of the
ancient teacher Koheleth,
The heart of the wise is
in the house of mourning;
but the heart of fools is
in the house of
mirth.
I was
pleased to compose dying
and dancing in 2013 for
Mark Kellogg, a superb
Euphonium artist and my
former trombone
