about

"The Italian composer Sylvano Bussotti (Florence, 1931) is one of the most important composers and artist of the international avant-garde scene, great friend of John Cage, Luciano Berio, Cathy Berberian, Peggy Guggenheim, Carmelo Bene. He wrote for solo guitar some of his masterpieces. Bussotti also included the guitar in a lot of Ensemble pieces, operas and ballets (among others The Rara Requiem, Mobile Stabile, Manifesto per Kalinowski, Lorenzaccio, Bozzetto Siciliano, Pater Doloroso, Phedre, Autotono, Le Bal Mirò, Circo Minore, Se Dodici Una Mano).
In this CD you can listen to all the Bussotti’s guitar solo compositions, from the well known masterpiece Ultima Rara (for one reciting guitarist) to the avant-garde piece Rara (eco sierologico). For the first time on CD you can listen to the “fable” Ermafrodito (for one reciting guitarist), to Nuvola Barocca and in World Premiere Recording to Popolaresca, an unedited manuscript (originally wrote for the Opera Bozzetto Siciliano) that Sylvano Bussotti gave to Sergio Sorrentino in 2015 especially for this recording project, Sorrentino worked a lot together with Bussotti, studying the pieces and talking about art, literature, theater. Sorrentino performed for the first time Popolaresca during his concert at the International Guitar Festival of Lagonegro (December 12, 2015 - Palazzo Corrado, Lagonegro, Italy)."
