About

At the start of the 19th century, the guitar repertoire was dominated by the melodic and virtuoso works of Italian composers. For his first album on the Analekta label, Napoli 1810 - Italian Romantic Music, Pascal Valois looks to revive the excitement and wonder sparked by the guitar during that era.

“This album is the culmination of many years dedicated to the interpretation of Italian music. This music is inseparable from the bel canto tradition (with its legato, flexibility and agility) in addition to ornamentation and improvised phrases. I incorporated all these elements into my playing and in my new album,” says Pascal Valois.

The album includes world-premiere recordings of Ferdinando Carulli’s Guitar Sonatina, op.59 no.1, and Guitar Sonata, op.159 no.1.
