Info for Aigua

Undoubtedly our interest and passion for the works composed throughout the 20th century have informed the choice of repertoire proposed in this record – the result of a long period of study and artistic collaboration. This repertoire has been part of our concert programmes for many years and represents four major milestones of the chamber music repertoire for the flute and guitar. Each work proposes a different compositional style – peculiar musical grammars and language with a varied and contrasting artistic vision delivered by each composer.

The disc opens and closes with water, acqua (in Algherese dialect, aigua), which has for many centuries been a source of artistic inspiration, subject of myth and for some civilisations, even religious worship.
