Classically trained jazz guitarist Diego Barber presents five well-developed themes and a 3-movement solo sonata transcribed from his outstanding commercial CD recordings: Calima One Minute Later Tales and The Choice. Two of the tracks “Elvira Maria” and the 3-movement Sonata “Banc d’Arguin” are strictly guitar solos while “Richi” is a solo accompaniedby light percussion. “Kilian’s Mountain” is a reduced score of an extended duet with a pianist and “Desierto” and “Virgianna” include expert sidemen on saxophone bass and drums.The music ventures from complex melody-chord textures to hard-swinging grooves all played with spontaneity and a heightened awareness of time dynamics color technique and tone. Even seasoned guitarists will find thesepieces rhythmically and technically challenging but they provide a roadmap to the recordings and rare insight to the workings of a unique musical mind. Diego Barber’s Compositions for ClassicalGuitar are written in standard notation only with online access to stellar solo and ensemble recordings. About Sonata “Banc d’Arguin” … Diego Barber is a native ofLanzarote in the Canary Islands just off the northeast coast of Africa; in writing Sonata “Banc d’Arguin ” the main solo piece in this collection he was inspired by the major cities Nouadhibouand Nouakchott the Banc d’Arguin National Park and the desert of the West African country of Mauritania.

The tenth concerto in B minor in L'Estro Armonico (best translated as The Harmonious Inspiration) which is edited here in A minor - for four solo guitars - is one of the most famous in the entire collection -- indeed inVivaldi's entire output. Scored for four solo violins two solo violas solo violoncello and an strings orchestra. Johann Sebastian Bach not only admired Vivaldi's Opus 3; he copied it openly. In a general sense the Vivaldipieces gave impetus to much that is in the German master's Brandenburg Concertos. More particulary six concertos of Vivaldi's Opus 3 were copied by Bach as the basis for six of his concertos: two for 0rgan (BWV 593 and 596 basedon Opus 3 nos. 8 and 11 respectively) three for solo harpsichord ) BWV 978 972 and 976 based on Opus 3 nos. 3 9 and 12 respectively) and one for four harpsichords and orchestra in A minor (BWV 1065 based on Opus 3 no. 10).Bach frequently rewrote concertos scored for one kind of instrument substituting another. It is evident that Bach thought not so much in terms of the violinistic nature of the originals but in their harmonic and rhythmicpotential which could be realized on any instrument. Since Bach has already justified an arrangement of Opus 3 number 10 by the great aesthetic success of his four-harpsichord version it serves to reason that an arrangementfor four guitars is equally valid. Just as Bach preserved everything of the original Vivaldi and added only a few doubling to accomodate the left hands of the harpsichordists so in this version the substitution of guitars is donewith little or no change of original-notes. The arpeggios especially prominent in the second movement lend themselves ideally to guitar playing and the ability of the guitar to play both lyrical lines as well as passage worksuits the violinistic lines and passages of the original.
