Introduction of Duccio Bianchi

His inclination for Alexander Scriabin’s music led him, 150 years after his birth, to work on these guitar transcriptions of some original piano works.

In addition to the sonatas, the short forms (preludes, studies, pieces of various genres) accompanied Scriabin’s compositional work throughout his life, forming a very conspicuous and varied corpus.

His choice is the result of a careful selection and was oriented towards those pieces of music that seemed to him more idiomatic; it was necessary to change the key to make the most of the sound of the guitar and its extension.
If in this operation, in some cases, a certain density has to be renounced, you can nevertheless gain in color and turn a look at these compositions from another perspective.

 

 

 

 

Sergio Coldagelli is a musician, guitar player and composer who was born in Tivoli, an ancient town just outside Rome. He started his musical studies at the age of 15, learning different musical genres, such as jazz, blues and folk. He begins to study instrumental theory at Frosinone’s “Licino Refice” conservatoire and continues at L’Aquila’s “Alfredo Casella” conservatoire. He studies in a dedicated and passionate way. After spending a considerable amount of time studying music and composition, he became acquainted with Maestro Pier Luigi Corona: he is so inspired by classical guitar that he decides to fine tune his skills. His desire to compose had been present since a very young age, but found its development and use only in adult life. The quality and feel of most of his works are impressionistic, and related to the past and nature. These are just momentary, passing glimpses whose musical contours are suspended and give an imaginary, refined and elegant atmosphere, which at times is even poetic . Though the pieces seem apparently simple, they offer quite a difficult technical challenge with regards to the extension of the fingers of both hands, due to the various forms of scales and arpeggios. The variety of harmonies offered to the interpreter are also interesting.

Milagros and Seville are two new compositions published by LANTRO MUSIC.
