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.

Opus
114 is certainly one of
Carulliâ??s most
important didactic works,
so much so that the
author himself made a
point of writing in the
second edition of his
famous Method op. 27
(1819): The student, when
moving on to the second
part, must continue to
practise on the easy
pieces which are to be
found in opus nos. 50,
15, 35, 36, 93, 7 and
above all in opus 114. He
maintained this
indication also in later
editions of the Method
itself, unlike what he
did with other
collections of studies
which were no longer
recommended. The
purpose of op. 114, in
particular of the
preludes, is clearly
explained by the author
himself in the preface of
op. 265: I have already
offered preludes in my
opus nos. 71 and 114 to
people, but they serve to
study and learn to play
all sorts of difficult
passages, to practise
modulating, and learn to
improvise on the guitar.
Carulli seems to want to
provide his students with
a large handbook of
formulas typical of his
musical writing and he
does so by making use of
the keys which, in his
opinion, are most
congenial to the guitar.
In his Method he points
out: Each instrument has
its favourite keys: the
guitar can be played in
all keys, but the best
ones are: A major and
minor, D major and minor,
E major and minor, C, G,
F. The others are
difficult; [â?¦].
However, some of the
difficult ones are
included but only in the
fourth part. Of course,
the easiness of a key
essentially depends on
the possibility of
extensive use of the open
strings, especially in
the low notes, ensuring
the accompaniment on the
main degrees. This
edition has some unique
features. First of all,
it is the first complete
modern edition of
Carulliâ??s op. 114; it
presents an important
critical apparatus in
which the Carullian
technique is presented
and analysed; finally,
Carulli's original
fingering is indicated in
the score (including that
of the thumb of the left
hand) and the missing one
was obtained from the
comparison of his other
fingerings present in
other works. All this
allows an easy and
complete reading both for
those who perform the
pieces following the
nineteenth-century
performance practice with
a historical instrument,
and for those who play a
modern instrument.
