Description

volume 1. One of the greatest difficulties involved in transcribing orchestra or piano music for guitar is the instrument’s limited tessitura. It is normal to change octave in some parts. On this occasion, however, I wanted to respect the original registers as much as possible. To do so, I was forced to modify my flamenco guitar, changing the fourth, fifth and sixth strings for the grave strings of a 10-string guitar. These strings are tuned on octave lower than usual and enabled me to obtain a broader tessitura. This original guitar can be heard in some pieces of Siete Canciones Populares Españolas and in Danza Final.

volume 2. Within the broad range of his compositions, La Vida Breve is especially significant for me. On several occasions I have been fortunate enough to collaborate with orchestras and play it live. On stage, surrounded by the sound of an orchestra, I have always felt the grandeur of this composition, noting its vibrant and subtle nuances in my very being. This experience encouraged me to investigate it further, attempting to reflect this sensation in the transcription

volume 3.Of all the pieces that I transcribed and recorded for these three albums, I believe that Amor Brujo is Falla’s greatest exponent of flamenco sounds. It contains Andalusian cadencies and melismata that Flamenco singers use in their work, clear evidence of Falla’s familiarity with the genre. I attempt to highlight and express those flamenco nuances that are of such importance in the piece’s overall context.
