Engl ish comments:
Empuries is the result of the interest Ruera showed throughout his life for the culture and music of ancient Greece. As he himself writes in the introduction to the composition: The motives behind this work were inspired by contemplating and analysing the melos of ancient Greece. The few melodies that have been discovered from those far-off times inspired the composer of Empuries to create this work, conceived with the Greek modal system in mind, and adapted to modern instruments and tastes. The tetrachord and pentachords of these forms are the very bases of this work. The descending drift of the cadence, the harmonic priority of the upper and lower notes of the tetrachords and the displacement of these chords to different acoustic levels, make it impossible to specify the classic concept of a set tonality which, within the improvised musical working of the piece, leads to a naturally intertonal or atonal piece of music. Empuries came to light in 1971, when it won group A of the Ciutat de Barcelona prize. But one must, in fact, go back to the 1930s to find its true origins. Ruera made his first foray into the theme of ancient Greece with the sardana, Empuries, la grega, with which he won first prize in the Jocs Florals in Girona, in 1931. Shortly afterwards, he wrote a piece of organ music entitled Bucolics, in the Greek modal style, which was destroyed during the Spanish civil war. Ruera continued to work on the theme and in 1936 he presented his work Tres moviments simfonics, for a big band, inspired by the ancient Greek modes, at the XIV International Festival of the ISCM held in Barcelona. The work was chosen to debut in the festival's opening concert on 19 April 1936 at Palacio de Bellas Artes in Barcelona. In 1959, Ruera won the Pau Casals Prize at the Jocs Florals de la Llengua Catalana, held at the Sorbonne in Paris, for his work, Empuries: poema per a cobla i orquestra, which would later become the fourth movement of Empuries. Nine years later, in 1968, Barcelona City Orchestra, conducted by Antoni Ros Marba, gave the first ever performance of the symphonic poem Pastoral, written to be the first movement of Empuries, in Granollers. The final step was when he finally completed the work, won the Ciutat de Barcelona prize, opened in Granollers on 2 May 1976 and recorded it for the Columbia de Barcelona label in 1977.

Comentario s del Espanol:
La obra Empuries es fruto del interes que el maestro Ruera demostro a lo largo de su vida por la cultura y la musica de la antigua Grecia. Como el mismo escribe en la cabecera de la composicion: Los motivos generadores de esta obra estan inspirados en la contemplacion y en el analisis del melos de la antigua Grecia. Las pocas melodias que hasta el momento se han podido descubrir de aquellos tiempos remotos sugieren al autor de Empuries la realizacion de esta obra, concebida pensando en el sistema modal griego, adaptado a los instrumentos y gustos modernos. Los tetracordes y pentacordes de dichas modalidades son las celulas en las que se basa la obra. El sentido descendiente de la cadencia, la prioridad armonica de la notas extremas de los tetracordes y el desplazamiento de estos acordes a varias alturas acusticas, hacen que no sea posible precisar el clasico concepto de una tonalidad determinada y que lleven, dentro del funcionamiento contrapuntistico, a una musica naturalmente intertonal o atonal. Empuries vio la luz en el ano 1971, ganando el Premio Ciutat de Barcelona, grupo A, pero en realidad tenemos que retroceder hasta los anos 30 para encontrar sus verdaderos origenes. La primera incursion en el tema de la antigua Gracia la hizo con la sardana Empuries, la grega, con la que gano el primer premio en los Jocs Florals de Gerona del ano 1931. Poco despues escribio una pieza para organo titulada Bucolics, en el estilo modal griego, que fue destruida durante la Guerra Civil espanola. Ruera continuo trabajando en el tema y en el ano 1936 presento su obra Tres moviments simfonics, en version para gran banda, inspirada en las antiguas modalidades griegas, en el XIV Festival Internacional de la SIMC que se celebro en Barcelona. La obra fue escogida para ser estrenada en el concierto inaugural de dicho festival, el 19 de abril de 1936, en el Palacio de Bellas Artes de Barcelona. En el 1959, Ruera gano el Premio Pau Casals en los Jocs Florals de la Llengua Catalana celebrados en la Sorbona de Paris con la obra Empuries: poema per a cobla i orquestra, que sera con el paso del tiempo el cuarto movimiento de Empuries. Nueve anos mas tarde, en 1968, la Orquestra Ciutat de Barcelona, bajo la direccion de Antoni Ros Marba, interpreto en Granollers la primera audicion del poema sinfonico Pastoral, pensado como primer movimiento de Empuries. El ultimo eslabon fue terminar definitivamente la obra, ganar el Premio Ciutat de Barcelona, estrenarla en Granollers el 2 de mayo de 1976 y grabarla para la casa discografica Columbia de Barcelona, en 1977.

Con no menos de 50 solos de guitarra 100% Blues a la manera de los mayores bluesmen de ayer y de hoy (Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Joe Bonamassa, Chris Duarte, B.B. King, Albert King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Otis Rush, Muddy Waters,Buddy Guy...), nuestro método le va a encantar, pero no se trata sólo de eso... En efecto, además del gusto que le procurará tocarlos, dichos solos le permitirán descubrir muchos clichés estilo Blues... que podrá integrarfácilmente en sus propios solos.

Y nada mejor que inspirarse en los grandes maestros del estilo. El hilo conductor es el Blues pero estos solos son muy variados. Ternarios sobre todo, pero a veces binarios. Elaborados enelfamoso «12 bar blues» pero no solamente. En unos aires lentos, estilo Slow Blues, o más enérgicos. En todas las tonalidades y con todo tipo de inspiraciones.

El DVD v deo permite o r y visualizar el conjunto de los 50solos pormenorizados, a velocidad normal y luego lenta, brindándole as la posibilidad de elegir los buenos ademanes las buenas digitaciones y tocar r tmicamente «a compás». El CD mp3 por su parte, abarca el mismo número deplaybacks que de solos. O sea 50 playbacks tocados en dos aires diferentes: el aire deseado (velocidad real) y el aire de trabajo (lento). Son de larga duración (4 o 5 minutos cada uno, o sea ¡más de 7 horas de música en total!)para darle el tiempo de trabajar en las mejores condiciones posibles.

Antonio Eximeno (Valencia, 1729 - Roma, 1808) - filosofo, matematico, letterato, musicologo - godette in vita di una breve ma intensa notorieta per la sua polemica contro la tradizione teorica del <>. In questa polemica ebbe, tra gli altri, un antagonista di grande prestigio, il francescano Giovanni Battista Martini; ma raccolse anche il consenso di Niccolo Jommelli ed altri autorevoli teorici e compositori italiani, e adesioni significative anche in Francia e in Inghilterra, dal Journal des Scavans alla Monthly Review. Poi, cambiati in un rapido giro di anni il clima culturale e il gusto musicale, le questioni affrontate da Eximeno persero di attualita e la sua polemica fu dimenticata.
La notevole fortuna editoriale che e stata riservata in anni recenti al primo trattato musicale di Eximeno va accreditata in Italia ad alcuni studiosi della scuola di Enrico Fubini, e lo stesso Fubini ha riservato attenzione al filosofo valenciano nei propri studi di estetica musicale. Tuttavia egli ritiene rilevanti in Eximeno solo le considerazioni sull'identita originaria di linguaggio e musica esaurendone il contributo estetico in una sostanziale acquiescenza alle teorie di Rousseau e anzi indicando il filosofo valenciano come <>. Da noi - a parte i contributi di Gino Stefani - questa indicazione di Fubini ha polarizzato gli studi e le scelte editoriali su un tema che in realta ha un'importanza marginale nella vastissima opera estetica di Eximeno, cosi come marginale e anche fortemente polemico e il suo rapporto con Rousseau. Di nuovo un pregiudizio critico vizia l'interpretazione. L'inconfessato ontologismo che sottende l'approccio estetico di Fubini ai problemi della musica anche nel caso di Eximeno lo induce a escludere dall'indagine la molteplicita di elementi e di interessi che confluiscono nella filosofia musicale del filosofo valenciano e dettano le sue riflessioni sulla poetica.
A questa riduzione chirurgica il presente studio cerchera di opporre una considerazione piu ampia, anche se necessariamente non esaustiva, dei temi e dei testi eximeniani, nella convinzione che nella vicenda teorica di Eximeno, ben al di la dell'angusta problematica isolata da Fubini, si esprima la reazione a una crisi di valori non solo estetici, senza comprendere la quale il giudizio sul suo pensiero estetico non ha fondamento.

Vi è nella formazione di ogni adepto un periodo fondamentale in cui la musica può essere percepita solo come la realizzazione di una splendida tecnica strumentale, oppure come l’espressione delle più intime sensibilità: Appunti di un flautista indirizza verso questa seconda attitudine, quella più significativa per chi sceglie di coltivare un’arte profonda e certamente ineffabile.
Il libro è la raccolta di tantissime esperienze maturate durante un’intera carriera che ha visto Mario Ancillotti nelle più diverse attività di solista, camerista, orchestrale, insegnante, organizzatore, direttore: tutte attività che derivano da una sete mai saziata di conoscenze nell’immenso campo della musica. Da queste nasce e si fonda dapprima la parte dedicata ai segreti dell’interpretazio ne e dell’ascolto, con esempi pratici corredati da esecuzioni ad opera dello stesso Ancillotti; successivamente ci si indirizza verso la parte più tecnica e strumentale, e poi verso i suggerimenti preziosi che l’esperienza di flautista e musicista eclettico ha dettato all’autore. Sempre nella consapevolezza che la musica è arte sublime ma sfuggente ad ogni rigida prescrizione e che tutto è determinato soltanto dal buon gusto raggiungibile solo con studio e sacrificio.
Il lavoro presenta infine un Repertorio ragionato denso di indicazioni, anch’esso suggerimento personale su tutti quei brani fondamentali per la formazione musicale e tecnica di ogni flautista che vuole divenire un interprete di quest’arte indagatoria e rivelatrice della sfera emotiva.

Dorian Dialogue is a concert piece for string ensembles set in the Dorian mode. The original melodies are evocative of English folk melodies. The first theme is rustic in nature and performed with gusto, while the contrasting second theme flows in a singing style. A perfect selection to highlight your ensemble in festival performance and help you teach simple sixteenth note figures.
Dorian Dialogue is a concert piece for string ensembles with at least two years of instruction. Owing to the setting in the Dorian mode, the melodies, while original, may strike some as being evocative of English folk melodies. The first theme is rustic in nature and should be performed with gusto. The contrasting second theme (m.38) should flow in a singing style. Balance is critical when the two themes are heard simultaneously beginning in m. 54. First violin players who are capable of playing 8va at mm. 57–61 should do so at the “optional” indication.
