CLASSICAL MUSIC OF THE WORLD PRESENTS:

MUSICAL MEDITATION II

SIX STRINGS PAINTINGS

Saturday, April 19 | 3:30 P.M. | Covenant United Methodist Church

“Six Strings Paintings” is a musical journey through images of life by guitar strings. It moves from Paganini’s abstract melodies to Spanish landscapes in Arcas’s “Bolero y Solea.” Barrios’s nostalgic “El Ultimo Tremolo” creates musical paintings, while Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s “Caprichos de Goya” musically interprets Goya’s art, and “Obsequio a el Maestro” honors Pizzetti. It finishes with Albeniz’s “Asturias,” its sounds paint a vivid, nostalgic Spanish scene and serve to evoke an intimate peace in the world. “Six Strings Paintings” is truly an immersive experience of the guitar’s ability to create colorful sounds from distinct emotions as visual paintings.
