This guitar, paradoxically, despite its apparent humility, produces a fascinating, mysterious and unique sound world. Since \u003cb\u003ethe original\u003c\/b\u003e, preserved at the Museum of Music in Barcelona, \u003cb\u003eis no longer able to express its voice\u003c\/b\u003e, the album aims to rediscover and revive the peculiar timbral and sonic characteristics of this interesting instrument through the use of two inspired copies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cb\u003eluthier Fabio Zontini\u003c\/b\u003e has taken up the challenge launched by Torres and has been building Papier-Mâché copies for almost twenty years. The two instruments used by Federica Artuso for the recording were made between April and September 2023 and both weigh (incredibly) just 995 grams. They also have natural gut strings. Zontini has thus created a kind of connection with the great Torres, capturing a kind of experiment-prototype by the Andalusian luthier, and successfully trying to spread it to the present day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Papier-Mâché is a kind of \u003cb\u003eliving contradiction\u003c\/b\u003e precisely because of the contrast between the humble material it is made of and the artistically surprising sonic result. And inspired by this contrast, an emblematic program of that paradox that embodies the identity of the guitar was recorded, always \u003cb\u003epoised between the humble soul\u003c\/b\u003e, authentic and popular on one hand, \u003cb\u003eand the Olympus of classical music\u003c\/b\u003e on the other. The music recorded here is all by \u003cb\u003eguitarist-composers\u003c\/b\u003e who \u003cb\u003elived during the time of the cardboard guitar\u003c\/b\u003e or who had dealings with Torres' instruments. These guitarists are part of that performing tradition and sonic poetics of which the Papier-Mâché is an emblem. Some of the pieces, although written by non-guitarist composers, are part of that repertoire with which the six strings are most identified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eArcas and Parga*\u003c\/b\u003e attempted to elevate the guitar to a classical instrument, without managing to completely emancipate themselves from flamenco reminiscences. Their style perfectly suits the \u003cb\u003earchaic essentiality\u003c\/b\u003e of the Papier-Mâché's sound, and their music, though strongly rooted in popular language, gradually leads us to the bourgeois and salon style of \u003cb\u003eGarcia Tolsa*\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eTarrega\u003c\/b\u003e, pupils of Arcas. Their music is no longer just for those with flamenco blood in their veins or for those who consider opera the only classical music. It is music that appeals to intellectuals, and if it allows for dancing, it does so on the condition that it is a salon dance. From the musicians' point of view, unlike his predecessors, Tarrega manages to package expressive impulses into totally complete forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiguel Llobet\u003c\/b\u003e, a pupil of Tarrega, is known as a composer mainly for his guitar version of the \u003ci\u003eCanciones populares catalanas\u003c\/i\u003e. The part of the program concerning him also features a repertoire of which he is not the author, but which faithfully represents him and where all the innovations brought by his creative flair, which bring out what is most characteristic of the guitar, are evident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaria Luisa Anido\u003c\/b\u003e was a pupil of Llobet, as well as his partner in a guitar duo. The Argentine musician was among the last guitarists in the 1950s to use gut strings - by then difficult to find - and, among other things, \u003cb\u003eowned Tarrega's Torres\u003c\/b\u003e (1864, FE17). Anido is the emblem of the guitar's image as a watershed between the world of folk music and that of classical music, a dichotomy that will probably never be fully resolved. This is demonstrated by her irresistible transcriptions of great classics such as Bach, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, and her South American pieces, pulsating with indigenous energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eListen\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border-radius: 20px; border-color: white;\" width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/velutluna.lnk.to\/Papier-Mache\" height=\"370\" border=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/velut-luna\"\u003eVelut Luna\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Velut Luna","offers":[{"title":"LP 33rpm","offer_id":49971329597787,"sku":"CVLD365LP","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"GOLD CD","offer_id":49971296665947,"sku":"CVLD365GOLDCD","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"File Hi-Res 88.2kHz · 24bit WAV","offer_id":48427947098459,"sku":"CVLD365","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/1016\/6580\/files\/VELUTLUNACVLD365B-cover.jpg?v=1748505599"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.referencemusicstore.com\/collections\/abel-fleury.oembed","provider":"Reference Music Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
