It has always resembled the rhythmic ebb and flow of the sea! Elated admiration and full indifference . high enthusiasm and absolute nonchalence . a glorious constellation of outstanding guitar players . and a solitary star here and there in the empty sky, this has been as a rule the usual course of events. But to-day, just after the War, this wave of enthusiasm and apprec iati on of the guitar has risen again to an unprecedented height. From all parts of the globe, including Russia, we have confirmation of this in the form of innumerable enquiries, appeals for advice and support, expressions of gratitude for gu1dance in difficult circumstances and appreciations of our unabated efforts to make the classical guitar known to wider and wider circles . No doubt, our ultimate aim is to succeed in obtaining the recognition of the classical guitai as a lawful member of the violin-piano family and thus to introduce guitar teaching at Conservatoires and other Schools instituted for the purpose of advancing the study of music and maintaining its purity. To achieve this aim all our forces must be united in one combined and consolidated body. We use our best endeavours to make ourselves known not only to the general public, but also to m cal circles, by means of short articles, letters, etc., especially in the daily press and ma~azines. F om the grneral public will come our pupils and students of the guitar. 1-1usicalcircles will pe the sour; e of our prospective fellow-teachers . Our aim must be to make people fully guitar-conscious. In thi endeavour "every" member in "every" guitar society can and must help ( R emember , what the old Romans said : " GUTT A CAVA T 4. Mrs. E.

The distinction of its thematic material, and its use in cyclical form, is reinforced by an ultimately victorious motto theme. The F major Quartet was written later, but remained unfinished, but it too is a fertile creation with a strong dance profile. Both works are heard in Alf Årdal’s imaginative arrangements for string orchestra. Arne Nordheim, Norway’s leading living composer, wrote Rendezvous as a quartet but expanded it in 1986. It is an intense, moving, and beautifully crafted work. Stephan Barratt-Due has been artistic director of the Barratt Due Institute of Music since 1985, a conservatory in Oslo founded in 1927 by his grandparents and now one of the main educational institutions of music in Norway. Barratt-Due is among the leading violin professors in Scandinavia, and under his leadership the Oslo Camerata has become increasingly in demand both nationally and internationally.

Es posen en context fets i ensenyances que el jove Pujol adquireix de Francesc Tàrrega i dels diversos successos que l’encaminaren cap a una vida plenament dedicada a la música. Pujol va compondre centenars de peces i estudis sota la influència de la tradició gui­ tarrística en la qual es formà. El seu mètode ensenya amb detall el camí d’aprenentatge de la tècnica instrumental sota les bases de l’escola de Tàrrega. També va ser dels primers a estu­ diar l’origen dels instruments de corda i treballar per a la recuperació del passat històric de la guitarra, fet que el duria a interpretar el llaüt i la viola de mà. Amb l’anàlisi que contrasta publicacions i material inèdit es revisen els primers anys de formació d’aquest músic, des del 1886 fins al 1909, any de la mort del seu mestre. PARAULES CLAU: Emili Pujol, Francesc Tàrrega, guitarra, música, compositor.

  • Modernist Representations of the Guitar and the Instrument’S Classical Revival in the 1920S
    MODERNIST REPRESENTATIONS OF THE GUITAR AND THE INSTRUMENT’S CLASSICAL REVIVAL IN THE 1920S Piquer Sanclemente, Ruth, Faculty of Geografía e Historia, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, ruthpiquer@hotmail.com Christoforidis, Michael, School of Music, University of Melbourne, mchri@unimelb.edu.au ABSTRACT Background in History of Art (Art Theory, Iconography) Although numerous studies deal with cubism and some discuss the representation of instruments like the guitar in cubist still-life constructions by Picasso and Juan Gris, practically none have addressed the relation between this modern vision of the guitar and musical thought of the time. While this musical debate attempted to synthesise elements of tradition and the avant-garde, and paralleled the emergence of the concept of “modern classicism”, it was often underpinned by cubist ideas. Background in Musicology / Musical Practice There is a growing body of literature on the re-emergence of the classical guitar in the 20 th century and its international dissemination in the 1920s. However, little work has been undertaken on the impact of the visual arts in shaping critical constructions of the instrument, and the aesthetics and the repertory of its protagonists. Aims To explore the multifaceted impact of modernist representations of the guitar in the visual arts on the revival of the classical guitar in Spain and the projection of the instrument internationally in the 1920s. An interdisciplinary approach is proposed to examine how Neoclassicism was intimately linked to the rise of the modern classical guitar (and the creation and “rediscovery” of its repertory), and how these constructions of the instrument were drawn from and paralleled in the visual and literary arts.

The first year program includes the study of freshman level technique tutors, classical and contemporary studies, and the establishment of the foundations of a repertoire of works created by the best artists that have written for the instrument. The student will have one meeting per week with the professor for a private lesson of fifty minutes of duration. Several aspects of the study of the instrument will be covered during each lesson: Technical studies such as arpeggio exercises and scales, sight-reading, classical and contemporary studies and general repertoire. Each week all the members of the guitar studio will meet for a complementary hour of training in the form of a master class. Commenting on readings from reference books or articles related to the guitar, on your fellow students and on your own performances on the instrument, on technique and on general repertoire matters, is an essential part of this course.
