Zaira Meneses WUNDERBACH

This release goes to show that Bach is beautiful on any instrument. Zaira Meneses plays Bach on guitar with unusual sensitivity and style. This is anything but mechanical Bach. This is Bach living and breathing on the guitar. Zaira Meneses is among the most exciting performers on the international classical guitar circuit. Her musicality and charisma have delighted audiences on three continents. Zaira Meneses was born in Xalapa, Mexico. From an early age she showed great talent for music, studying both classical guitar and voice. She traveled widely, performing as well with the famed Orquesta de Guitarras. At the age of 17 and as the youngest contestant, she won first prize in an important national concerto competition. This success led to performances of Joaquin Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez and Concierto Madrigal for two guitars throughout Mexico. Since moving to the USA in 2001, Meneses has built a stellar reputation for her warm sound, limpid technique, and superb natural musicality, performing in many of the great concert halls of the world, including Boston's Jordan Hall, New York City's Alice Tully Hall, and Salzburg's Wiener Saal.

Antonio Amodeo CONTINUIDAD Y DEFORMACIÓN

ln this album we can find various realities transformed in sound and different kinds of writing belonging to the same area, the so­ called Sur, kaleidoscopic and impossible to restrict to a single form of poetics. The works performed here are the musical representation of the fusion between the academic style and the richness of the popular element typical of that area. Born in Piacenza in 1980, Antonio Amodeo graduated with honors from the “Conservatorio G. Nicolini.” He perfected his skill at the Hochschule fur Musick Mainz with the master Stefan Hladek. He has taken part in many different chamber music ensembles, including the Orchestra a plettro, Diversus Guitar Ensemble, and Quartetto Chitarristico. He gives masterclasses for young guitarists and teaches in many music schools and academies, both in Northern Italy and in Germany.
