Works for Choir & Guitar

Castelnuovo-Tedesco's Romancero Gitano for mixed choir and guitar sets some of Federico García Lorca's most striking and intimate Andalusian poems to music. The music, characterized by dramatic contrasts, combines coloristic ideas with rich polyphonic composition - here performed in a meticulous critical edition. Corrado Margutti's Rivers, designed to accompany Romancero Gitano, is a kaleidoscope of forms, styles and images that is both a tribute to Castelnuovo-Tedesco and contains hidden references to other musical greats, thus forming a musical journey through time and space.
