Duo Pace-Poli Cappelli

You are here:

The second event of the “Domenica Classica” review hosts on the stage of the Sala Umberto Theater the Pace-Poli Cappelli duo, considered one of the most important guitar duos internationally, who will present music by Piazzolla, Albéniz and Gangi.

Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla (Mar del Plata, March 11, 1921 – Buenos Aires, July 4, 1992) was undoubtedly one of the most important figures on the 20th century music scene The nuevo tango of Astor Piazzolla incorporates not only elements of American cultured jazz and European cultured music but also results in an original language that is absolutely innovative and constantly evolving. The Suite Troileana is a 1975 composition written in honor of his teacher and friend Aníbal Troilo, a few months after his death. The music of Isaac Albéniz (Camprodon, May 29, 1860 – Cambo-les- Bains, May 18, 1909) is undoubtedly one of the most evocative in the Spanish tradition. A brilliant pianist and prolific composer, he was one of the most important exponents of the Spanish National School of the late 19th century. Among the great exponents in the Italian guitar scene of the 20th century Mario Gangi (Rome, May 10, 1923 – Roiate, Feb. 15, 2010) is undoubtedly one of the most relevant. From 1948 is the splendid original Spanish Suite for two guitars, in the movements Andalusa, Fandango and Sevillana, which recall three dance movements. S
