Giorgio Mirto (guitar)About
Composers include Giorgio Mirto himself, composers writing for Mirto: Manco, Torresan, Di Salvo and Albini, and more familiar composers such as Pujol and Miklos Rozsa whose Valse Crépusculaire was made famous in the film Providence.
Giorgio Mirto is the ideal interpreter for this repertoire: imaginative, speaking the language of love and life itself. This is a new recording, with personal liner notes by the composer and artist.
With its romantic and mystical connotations, ‘night’ has long been the inspiration behind many works of art. This release presents an alternative reading of its beguiling message, detailing a selection of little-known and contemporary compositions that have all been written for guitar.
The compilation contains expert performances by Giorgio Mirto and begins with his 3 Nocturnes – the first of several Italian works featured on this disc. Andrew York’s spirited Into dark completes the survey, a work that perfectly encapsulates the American’s predilection for mixing classical music with folk and rock elements.
Brimming with colour and expression, these miniature and highly varied evocations form a gem of a recording that is not to be passed up. The compilation is a worthy addition to the guitar enthusiast’s library, with the instrument’s subtle nuances perfectly capturing night’s enigmatic nature.
