Faculty Focus: Alejandro Cote
Description:
This recital contains music showcasing the versatility of
the classical guitar as a solo instrument. The pieces by
Mertz and Regondi date from the mid-nineteenth century and
bear much resemblance to the music of Schubert and Liszt. The
remainder of the program features contrasting music
of the twentieth century. The work by Italian composer/guitarist
Carlo Domeniconi reflect his interest in folk idioms and
has an improvisational quality. Also influenced by folk music
are the works by Spanish composers Turina and Pujol. The
sonata by Ginastera is more modern in its harmonic language
and uses the guitar as a percussive instrument.
