TC 840004

The Japanese harpist Nagisa Tanaka is the winner of the 11th International Harp Competition “Suoni d’Arpa”, 2022 edition.

The recording of the CD, offered by Tactus to the young artist, features a selection of compositions spanning from the late 18th century to the final echoes of the historical 20th century.

The works primarily include opera transcriptions and pieces derived from dance music, enriched by two intriguing explorations: a variation on a popular aria (Paër) and a transcription from piano (Respighi).

Works:

•Damase: Sicilienne Variee
•Paër: Variations on the Venetian Air "Parona Compatime"
•Rota, N: Sarabanda e Toccata for harp
•Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor, A. 46 (Arr. for Harp by Albert Zabel)
•Donizetti: L'elisir d'amore, A. 36: Una furtiva lagrima (Arr. for Harp by John Thomas)
