Countess of Munster Trust, their concert start­ ed with the “Duo Concer- tante”, a gentle and melodic piece by 19th cen­ tury guitar virtuoso Mario Giuliani, followed by the “Himgarian Pas­ toral Fantasy”, by Franz Doppler - better known as the discoverer of the Doppler Effect. This F^tasy by Franz


Liszt's teacher was a fore­ runner of Liszt’s “Hun­ garian Rhapsodies”, the two instruments provid­ ing an unexpected depth of colour. The UK premiere of a


piece by contemporary American composer Jason Cress was next. Com­ posed in 2008, “Indone­ sian Scenes” is heavily influenced by Balinese gamelan music, where instruments are played in

pairs, tuned slightly apart to produce the very ‘b u ^ ’ and “shimmering” sound. Sarah had to use some advanced tonguihg techniques, while the per­ cussive effects used by Andrew gave the impres­ sion that his guitar was a set of drums. Many mem- bers of the audience


. expressed their enjoyment of this unusual piece of music. The first half finished


with “Sonatina”, by Mario Castelnuovo- Tedesco. Italian bom, but, emigrating to America in the late 1930s, Castelnuo- vo-Tedesco later became the teacher of Henry


hich movie? •


Mancini and Andre Previn. Sonatina’s beauti­ ful melody, heightened by Latin rhythms and har­ monies, proved to be a foretaste for the rest of the concert. • The second half started with a guitar solo,


“Jongo”, by Paulo Belli- nati. This was based on an Angolan dance brought to Brazil by slaves. Highly popular, the jongo was banned by the authorities, which gives a clue to its exuberant nature! Although French, Jacques Ibert's “Paraboles” and “Entr’acte” enabled the two instrumentalists to create an image of a Fla­


menco dancer finishing with her arms in the air and a stamp of her feet. The recital finished


with pieces by two con­ temporary Latin Ameri­ can composers. Brazilian Egberto Gismonti is a classically trained pianist who taught himself to play the guitar. His “Agua e Vino” has a haunting melody which gave little clue to what was to follow. Argentinian Maximo Diego Pujol’s “Nubes de Buenos Aires” and “Can- dombe de los Buenos Tiempo” are both based on the candombe, another dance brought over the Atlantic by African slaves.
