Info for Works for Guitar Sextet



With specially made instruments and a range that can emulate that of a whole orchestra, the acclaimed Guitarra a Seis bring us a colourful programme that includes works written specially for the ensemble. Opening with a real feast for the ears in Bach’s lively Brandenburg Concerto No. 3, we further encounter the magical moods of Ravel’s Ma mère l’Oye, a blend of Bulgarian folk and modern music from Atanas Ourkouzounov, Tobias Krebs’ jazz-infused Suite Panamericana, and Sérgio Assad’s humorous Juan Sebastian’s Bar, which alludes to Bach and Beethoven but is Brazilian through and through. The guitar sextet Guitarra a Seis was founded in Zurich in 2012. The founder members include the three German guitarists Jens Stibal, Harald Stampa and Matthias Kläger as well as the Brazilian guitarist Edmauro de Oliveira. The Polish guitarist Adam Oleńczak joined in 2016, followed by the Swiss guitarist and composer Tobias Krebs in 2019. This is Guitarra a Seis’ debut on the Naxos label, but this is an ensemble that has already established European renown in the guitar world and beyond for its innovative approach to performing and its imaginative programming of arrangements and original works.

Guitarra a Seis



Guitarra a Seis
The ensemble Guitarra a Seis (Portuguese: guitar for six) was founded in 2011. Six renowned soloists from Switzerland, Germany, Poland and Brazil, who have won numerous prizes at international competitions, joined forces to discover new worlds of sound for the guitar.

With the instruments, some specially developed for them, they reach a range of five and a half octaves. This gives the ensemble the opportunity to play even orchestral works without octaves. The cast is supplemented by various percussion instruments.

The musicians play their own arrangements from Bach to Frank Zappa, Sergio Assad also wrote the piece "Juan Sebastian's Bar", Tobias Krebs the "Swinging Sextet" and Atanas Ourkouzounov the "Codex Bulgaricus" for Guitarra a Seis, the Italian virtuoso and arranger Carlo Marchione made arrangements of Rossini's overture “L'Italiana in Algeri” and the orchestral work “Ma mère l'oye” by Maurice Ravel for the ensemble.
