Camerata Cassovia presents "Guitar Favourites," a captivating classical album released on November 19, 2016, under the Smooth Classical label. This exquisite collection spans a little over an hour and ten minutes, offering a rich tapestry of guitar-centric compositions that showcase the ensemble's virtuosity and versatility.
The album opens with Vivaldi's Chamber Concerto in D Major, RV 93, followed by a delicate rendition of Mendelssohn's "Lieder ohne Worte" (Songs without Words) No. 38 in A Minor, beautifully adapted for guitar. The ensemble continues to enchant with a variety of pieces, including Granados' "Grand Sonata in A Major," Schubert's "Schwanengesang," and Debussy's "Suite bergamasque," each piece meticulously arranged for guitar, both solo and accompanied by orchestra.
Camerata Cassovia also pays homage to modern composers with selections from Heitor Villa-Lobos' "Chôros" and Ernesto Nazareth's "Manha de Carnaval." The album culminates with the iconic "Concierto de Aranjuez" by Joaquín Rodrigo, featuring the stunning "Adagio" that has become a cornerstone of classical guitar repertoire.
"Guitar Favourites" is a testament to Camerata Cassovia's mastery of classical music, offering a diverse and engaging journey through some of the most beloved guitar compositions in the classical canon. Whether you're a seasoned classical enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album promises a delightful and enriching listening experience.
