Brazilian Nocturnes in Harlem

I'm looking forward to hosting Octávio Deluchi with a program of Brazilian solo guitar compositions. Please join us for a night of enchanting music in a cozy Harlem studio.

Light snacks will be provided. Please note that this is a no-shoes apartment, make sure to take off your shoes upon entering :)

Marco Pereira (b. 1950) - Bate-Coxa

Heitor Villa-Lobos (1887-1959) - Preludes 1-3

Dilermando Reis (1916-1977) - Conversa de Baiana, Xodó da Baiana, Eterna

Intermission

Augustin Barrios (1885-1944) - Choro da Saudade, Danza Paraguaya

Laura Snowden (b. 1989) - Song for Maria

Geraldo Vespar (b. 1937) - Etude nº 18

Vicente Paschoal (b. 1979) - Dedication nº 1

Astor Piazzolla (1921-1992) - Verano Porteño (Arr. Assad)

“Brazilian Nocturnes: Guitar Tales Under the Stars” features living and active classical guitar composers from Brazil and historical and relevant names related to the South American country. Despite their common origin, the living composers contemplated in this repertoire are based in many different cities throughout the world, such as Rio de Janeiro, New York, Chicago, and Lisbon, among other places. The program also presents exclusive pieces premiered or commissioned by Deluchi. The contemporary repertoire presented in “Brazilian Nocturnes: Guitar Tales Under the Stars” is a new statement of the aesthetics of current young and diverse composers, side by side with more established names. The program has at the same time a fresh scent while relying heavily on the tradition, honoring the solo guitar influences.
