Piano Music of Camargo Guarnieri
The short individual pieces on this recording, the Valsas, Improvisos and Momentos show the sweeter side of Guarnieri’s musical language. The Waltz is a format in which every Brazilian composer has expressed his national character, making it almost a new distinctive format. Guarnieri’s Valsas share a minor key, and typically present internal melodies shared between the hands, and wreathed in chromatic modulations and decorations. Their mood is one of longing, now almost completely shorn of its dance character. The effect of all these pieces, many of them extreme miniatures, is of gentle nostalgia. © Adrian Farmer
This recital is organised into 3 groups, each containing a varied selection of short pieces, ending with a Sonatina. No chronological plan is implied, and given the often decades long gap between composition and publication none seemed relevant in the construction of the programme.
