Urtext-The Spaniard Joaquin Turina (1882-1949) was one of the first contemporary composers who addressed by the outstanding guitarist Andrés Segovia wrote contemporary original works for the guitar thus paving the way for this instrument onto the international concert stages in the 20th century. Meanwhile it is a known fact that Segovia often edited the musical text of the compositions written for him and arranged it according to his personal style of interpretation. Our new editions of Turina's most important works are therefore based on both the first editions and the original autograph versions thus presenting for the first time the original text. Today no performer canget around these new editions if he/she wants to deal with Turina's artistic legacy in a responsible manner.

The Homenaje (Tribute) a Lope de Vega sets extracts from three of the sixteenth century writer’s many works all on the theme of romantic desire. The Vocal work is demanding and the Piano part more than mere accompaniment which keep these songs alive in the recital repertoire.Composer pianist writer and educator Joaquin Turina was born in Seville in 1882 and was active mainly in Spain until his death in 1949. His work is influenced by traditional Andalusian idioms and he was particularly generous in his attention to songs dwarfed only by his output of solo Piano music.

This work for Piano Trio was first performed in 1999 to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the composer's death. The work was composed in 1904 but like all of his works pre-1907 Turina treated it with disdain and never encouraged a performance.
