Francis
Bebey was born in Douala
in July 1929, into a
large family where his
father, a pastor,
struggled to feed his
children. But Francis had
the opportunity to go to
school. Admiring his
elder brother, Marcel
Eyidi Bebey, he educated
himself, distinguished
himself, and eventually
received a scholarship to
go and take his
baccalaureate in
France. We approached
the end of the 1950s when
he arrived in La
Rochelle. More than ever,
in this France where
Africans were looked at
with curiosity,
condescension, or
disdain, Francis relied
on his intellectual
resources. A diligent
worker, he obtained his
Baccalaureate, then moved
to Paris where he started
English studies at the
Sorbonne. One day, he
knew what truly attracted
him: he wanted to do
radio. Francis learned
his craft in France and
in the USA. After
working for a few years
as a reporter, he was
hired in 1961 as an
international civil
servant in the UNESCO
Information
Department. In
parallel, Francis had
always been drawn to
musical creation. His
very serious daytime
activity didnâ??t
prevent him from
frequenting jazz clubs in
the evenings. In Paris,
the Jazz, the trendy
music of that time, but
also rumba and salsa
attracted him. He
collected records and
attended numerous
concerts. With his
accomplice Manu Dibango,
Francis took the stage
and played
music. Francis liked
classical music since his
childhood. He grew up
listening to the cantatas
and oratorios of Bach or
Handel that his father
had sung in the temple.
He became passionate
about the guitar,
impressed by the Spanish
and South American
masters, and decided to
learn to strum the
instrument himself. He
started composing guitar
pieces, blending the
various influences that
flow through him with the
traditional African music
he had carried within
since childhood. His
approach captivated the
director of the American
Cultural Center (then
located in the
Saint-Germain
neighborhood of Paris),
who offered him the
opportunity to perform in
front of an audience.
Francis gave his first
guitar recital there
(1963) in front of a
mesmerized audience. His
first solo album was
released shortly
thereafter. Gradually,
Francis became recognized
as a musician and
composer. Several albums
of the African guitar
ambassador, as described
by the press, were
released. He also wrote
books, to the point that
his artistic career
became challenging to
reconcile with his career
as a civil servant. In
1974, even though he had
become the General
Manager in charge of
music at UNESCO, he took
the bold leap and
resigned from this
prestigious institution
to dedicated himself to
the three activities that
interested him: music,
literature, and
journalism. He
explored the traditional
musical heritage of the
African continent,
notably through the thumb
piano sanza, and the
polyphonic music of the
Central African pygmies,
or singing in his native
language and composing
humoristic songs in
French! Success
followed. Francis Bebey
traveled the world: from
France to Brazil,
Cameroon to Sweden,
Germany to the Carribean,
or Morocco to Japan...
the list of countries
where he was invited to
perform, gives lectures,
or meets readers is very
long. In addition to
public recognition, he
enjoyed the recognition
of his fellow musicians,
such as guitarist John
Williams or Venezuelan
Antonio Lauro, who
invited him to be a part
of the jury for a
classical guitar
competition in
Caracas. His life was
the journey of an African
pioneer, a man rooted in
his cultural heritage and
carrying a message of
sharing and hope for the
world. His originality
continues to vibrate
around the world since
his passing at the end of
May 2001.

Lazarus Guitarra
Liturgia Two pieces
based on music from the

tradition.
Contents: Jerusalem
de Sefarad - Suite for
Guitar Contrapunto
Sefardi The composer
writes: For many
years I wanted to compose
a piece for guitar which
would inspire interested
students to expand their
repertoire in the
direction of Jewish
music. The most natural
thing for me was to write
a suite based on themes
from the synagogue in
which I grew up –
the Spanish and
Portuguese synagogue of
Gibraltar. My beloved
grandfather served all
his life as hazzan
(cantor) of this
synagogue, and I always
felt as a composer and
educator that I had a
special obligation to
continue his tradition
and pass it on to a new
generation. In this
composition, I let the
guitar echo the piyyutim
(semi-liturgical poems)
that were part of my
childhood: Adon Olam,
Sh'charchoret, Achot
K'tana, Yigdal, Borei ad
Ana, all of which are
sung in the Spanish and
Portuguese tradition from
Gibraltar to London, and
from New York to
Jerusalem. I let myself
dream the piyyutim, take
them apart and
reconstruct them as a
short suite for guitar,
the results of which you
are invited to hear here.
As a conceptual idea for
the suite, I choose to
suggest about the
cultural continuation
between the Diaspora and
the land of Israel by way
of referencing the
well-known melody of
Naomi Shemer, which is
also popular among the
hazzanim. Dr. Ariel
Lazarus is a unique voice
among Israeli
composer-performers
today. Brought up in a
family with Jewish
musical roots both in
Gibraltar and Westphalia,
he began composing and
playing the guitar in his
teens, and has been
committed to developing
his own compositional
language ever since,
always maintaining an
open dialogue with his
traditions. Lazarus
received his BMus and
MMus degrees from
Oklahoma City University
in classical guitar
performance and
composition where he
studied with American
composer Dr. Edward
Knight. He earned his PhD
from Bar Ilan University,
studying composition with
Prof. Betty Olivero and
Prof. Gideon Lewensohn
and conducting research
under the supervision of
Prof. Edwin Seroussi from
the Hebrew University.
His symphonic works have
been premiered by the
Raanana Symphonette
Orchestra, and his
chamber works have been
performed by various
ensembles in the United
States, Central Europe,
Portugal, Gibraltar,
Scandinavia and Israel.
Lazarus performs
regularly as Art
Ambassador on behalf of
the Israeli Ministry of
Diaspora affairs Amiel
BaKehila program. His
solo album A Hebrew
Capriccio was released by
the German boutique label
SmoothFactor and was
awarded critical acclaim,
among others, in Haaretz,
and Neue Westfalishe.
Dr. Lazarus is the
musical director and
co-founder of the Israeli
Ladino Orchestra. His
work with the orchestra
has been recognized by
the official Carta de
España. He teaches at
the Academic College for
Education Givat
Washington, and the Rimon
School of Music.
Lazarus’s work has
been awarded by the
Israeli Pais Art council
and ACUM.

In
2013, to celebrate the
second centenary of the
death of Arcangelo
Corelli, I played in an
official concert held in
his memory in Fusignano,
his hometown. Corelli did
not write for the guitar,
but a few of his
compositions were
transcribed by some
contemporary guitarist
and certainly his name
has always been
associated in the history
of music with the theme
of the very famous
<>
(although the origins of
this theme go back a long
way before Corelli). In
the guitar repertoire,
well-known cycles of
variations on this theme
exist. My long history of
friendship and working
together with important
Italian composers has
made it possible for me
to build a concert
program with some new
guitar compositions
dedicated to Corelli, to
which others have been
added. They are all
together in this
anthology, with the
exceptions of Corelliana
by Davide Anzaghi, Per
Arcangelo by Gilberto
Cappelli and Corelliana
Seconda by Paolo
Ugoletti, published
separately. The cover
picture, specially
created by Norma
Lutzemberger for this
publication, celebrates
this meeting between the
modern guitar and
Arcangelo
Corelli. (Piero
