Las Seis Cuerdas

Description

Guitar — For editor Angelo Gilardino, Company's Las Seis Cuerdas was pure revelation in 1965, at a time when two warring ideologies of music were confronting each other. "[A] most wondrous admixture of Pierre Boulez and John Cage," he says. "[T]he bull-mastiffs of the post-Webernian music police... failed to realize that this composition's subtle tone-colouring exuded expression from every pore." The new edition by B?rben is handsomely published and assembled, complete with a CD recording of performances by Company, himself. For advanced guitarists.
