Flávio Apro (guitarra clásica, arreglos).

Grabado en la Logia Maringá (Grande Oriente do Brasil) (Paraná), el 18 de marzo de 2014.

"Aunque los compositores brasileños puede que no sean tan conocidos como los futbolistas de su país, son sin duda tan originales, creativos y placenteros. Esta nueva grabación presenta una selección de música original para guitarra de compositores brasileños: Pernambuco, Nepomuceno, Nazareth, Belinatti, Garoto, Alto, Gismotni, entre otros. Una sabrosa combinación de folclore, sensualidad y diversión interpretada en sintonía con el espíritu que la inspiró por uno de los más famosos guitarristas de Brasil."

"On this varied and atmospheric album, accomplished guitarist Flávio Apro selects pieces from nine different composers, all representative of the evolution of classical Brazilian guitar music over the course of the late-19th and 20th centuries. What connects many of these luminaries is their ability to bring European dance forms into their musical world and then to mould them into something different by injecting elements of Brazilian musical tradition. Particularly striking examples of this are João Pernambuco, whose Sons de Carrilhões incorporates elements of European polka, yet embellished with rhythmic and harmonic repetitions that conjure up numerous surprises for the listener; and Egberto Gismonti, whose work fuses traditional Brazilian genres with elements of jazz, classical, world and contemporary music.

Meanwhile, other composers from this collection push the envelope of guitar composition in different ways. Leo Brouwer’s challenging, four-part Sonata del Caminante travels through waves of landscape-evoking intensity, via extremes of tempo, dynamics and scope; while Rafael Altro’s Homenagem is a true test of the performer’s dexterity and skill.

Guitarist Flávio Apro is more than equal to this challenge. A specialist in chamber music, he is also a highly respected teacher, producer and researcher. This is his second recording for Brilliant Classics; alongside the recently released Nocturne, it will surely help further his reputation as a masterful interpreter of the South American repertoire."
