Concert de Tardor. Concierto de Otono. Composed by Xavier Benguerel. 1931-. For Guitarra y quinteto u Orquesta Cuerda. Guitar and String Quintet or String Orchestra. Plucked Instruments. Duration 12. 00. Published by Editorial de Musica Boileau. BO.B.3452. English comments. Despite the difficulties that he claims to have in conceiving a guitaristic language, Xavier Benguerel is composer notorious for his prolific guitar writing. If in the course of its history the language of this instrument has oscillated between melodic writing with violonistic roots and a fundamentally pianistic harmonic writing. Benguerel achieves a perfect balance between both tendencies. This opportune convergence allows the performer to employ a wide array of markedly contrasted virtuoso techniques and instrumental resources and at the same time presents the listener a guitaristic discourse with a musical richness that is perfectly balanced with the string quartet or string orchestra. The Autumn Concerto gathers together, from a renewed perspective, some of the best discoveries the composer has offered throughout his production for guitar. Its open dialog, formal structure, instrumental efficiency and textural variety make this work very appealing when it comes to including it in a concert programme. --Jaume Torrent. Barcelona, March 2006. Comentarios del Espanol. Pese a las dificultades que confiesa tener para concebir un lenguaje guitarristico, Xavier Benguerel se ha convertido en un compositor notoriamente prolifico en su produccion para guitarra. Si a lo largo de la historia el lenguaje de este instrumento ha basculado entre la escritura melodica de raices violinisticas y la armonica de fundamentos pianisticos, Benguerel consigue un perfecto equilibrio entre ambas tendencias. Esta feliz confluencia posibilita al interprete gozar de un despliegue de tecnicas virtuosisticas y recursos instrumentales marcadamente contrastados y, a la vez, proporciona al oyente un discurso guitarristico con una plenitud sonora perfectamente equilibrada con las propuestas del cuarteto o de la orquesta de cuerda. El Concierto de Otono recoge -con vision renovada- algunas de los mejores hallazgos que el compositor nos ha ido ofreciendo a lo largo de su produccion para guitarra y su caracter dialogante, estructura formal, eficacia instrumental y variedad de texturas hacen de esta una obra de gran atractivo a la hora de formar parte de la programacion de un concierto. --Jaume Torrent.

Barcelona, ​​March 2006. Spanish Comments. Despite the difficulties that have confessed to conceive a guitar language Benguerel Xavier has become a notoriously prolific composer in his production guitar. If throughout history the language of this instrument has swung between the melodic writing violinistic roots of pianistic and harmonic foundations, Benguerel strikes a perfect balance between the two trends. This happy confluence enables the interpreter to enjoy a display of virtuoso techniques and sharply contrasting instrumental resources and, in turn, provides the listener with Guitarristico speech with a perfectly balanced sound correctly with the proposals of the quartet or string orchestra. The Autumn Concert collects renewed vision-with-some of the best finds the composer has been offering us along his guitar production and character dialogue, formal structure, efficiency and variety of instrumental textures make this a work of highly attractive when part of the programming of a concert. --Jaume Torrent.
