Classical Guitar Arrangements from Bizet's Opera Carmen. One might think that it would be impossible to arrange the music of Georges Bizet?s opera, Carmen, for solo classic guitar, but Néstor Ausqui has done it! While the guitar is an intimate and sweet-sounding instrument, it does not have a broad dynamic range; yet, as Dionisio Aguado proclaimed in his Nuevo Método para Guitarra of 1843, the classic guitar?s expansive palette of tone color gives it the ability to emulate ?a miniature orchestra?. These characteristics make the guitar the ideal instrument to reflect both the character and sensuality of the dances that occur throughout Bizet?s Carmen?Aragonaise, Habanera, Seguidillas, and Danse Bohéme?as well as Carmen?s sober ?Chant de la Mort?. Recommended for the advanced guitarist, Carmen Suite is written in standard notation with extensive digitation and occasional drop-D tuning. In Néstor Ausqui?s Carmen Suite, ??the guitar both sings like a human voice and accompanies itself, giving the work an irrefutable guitar identity. The characteristic feeling manifested in Spanish dance is now expressed through the guitar with a full and defined instrumental singularity.? ? Guillermo Rene? Alvarez Musicologist, Professor at the Instituto Superior de Mu?sica, Universidad Nacional del Litoral-Argentina

Imagery Suite è lo straordinario prodotto dell'incontro musicale di due tra i più grandi chitarristi del nostro tempo : Maurizio Colonna, uno dei più significativi innovatori del chitarrismo classico contemporaneo, e Frank Gambale, caposcuola e puntoferimento assoluto dei nuovi linguaggi jazz-rock. La reale possibilità di fare musica senza rinunciare ad esprimere totalmente il proprio stile, la propria personalità musicale è, senza dubbio, il sorprendente risultato ottenuto in Imagery Suite. Un ato che certamente poggia sul virtuosismo e sulla profonda conoscenza strumentale dei due chitarristi, ma ciò che veramente colpisce di Colonna e Gambale sono la carica emotiva, l'energia, la grande sensibilità, tutto a livelli assolutamente eccezionecisamente fuori dall'ordinario.
