Mompou: Misteriós, Transcriptions for Guitar Vol. 1

Ramelli, Marco

96709

This album is dedicated to the compositions of Federico Mompou i Dencausse (1893-1987), a composer and pianist of profound sensitivity. Born in Barcelona, Mompou exhibited an early inclination for the piano. However, inspired after a concert of Gabriel Fauré, he decided to dedicate himself to composition. Like many of his generation, he went to Paris to further his studies. Upon returning to his homeland, he continued his profoundly personal approach to the piano, exploring its most poetic facets as a composer and interpreter. Despite his innate introversion, the unique voice of his music soon gained recognition. His contemplative and poetic music mirrors his life, one of introspection, in which music was used as a medium to connect to his spiritual world.

Nowadays Mompou’s music is rapidly gaining public appreciation and many famous musicians play his works in concert.

This album presents works originally written for piano, transcribed for solo guitar: Canciones y Danzas, Impressones Intimas, Cants Màgics, Préludes as well as other works.

The intimate and poetic character of the music is perfectly captured by the guitar sounds of Marco Ramelli, one of Italy’s foremost guitar players.
