Beschreibung
One might think that it would be impossible to arrange the music of Georges
Bizets opera, Carmen, for solo classic guitar, but Néstor Ausqui has done it!
While the guitar is an intimate and sweet-sounding instrument, it does not
have a broad dynamic range, yet, as Dionisio Aguado proclaimed in his Nuevo
Método para Guitarra of 1843, the classic guitars expansive palette of tone
color gives it the ability to emulate a miniature orchestra. These
characteristics make the guitar the ideal instrument to reflect both the
character and sensuality of the dances that occur throughout Bizets
CarmenAragonaise, Habanera, Seguidillas, and Danse Bohémeas well as Carmens
sober Chant de la Mort. Recommended for the advanced guitarist, Carmen Suite
is written in standard notation with extensive digitation and occasional
drop-D tuning. In Néstor Ausquis Carmen Suite, the guitar both sings like a
human voice and accompanies itself, giving the work an irrefutable guitar
identity. The characteristic feeling manifested in Spanish dance is now
expressed through the guitar with a full and defined instrumental
singularity. Guillermo Rene Alvarez Musicologist, Professor at the Instituto
Superior de Musica, Universidad Nacional del Litoral-Argentina
