ITALIAN MUSIC FOR GUITAR AND PIANO

ITALIAN MUSIC FOR PIANO AND GUITAR
It is a common belief that the combination of piano and guitar is a complicated enigma for both composers and performers: the sounds and approaches of the two instruments are too distant, their blend too unbalanced, the volume produced too different, and the way of ‘thinking’ or constructing harmonies too divergent. In short, when put together, piano and guitar tend to immediately prove almost incompatible. Furthermore, if there isn't even minimal amplification of the guitar, the piano will be forced to play almost always ‘on tiptoe’. Despite this, and despite common belief, several composers, especially in the twentieth century, have managed to achieve splendid results through a skilful work on the ‘fulls’ and ‘empties’ of the respective instruments, a particular attention to an unconventional dialogue, filigree writing and, of course, a good dose of instinct that never hurts. This album is a testament to these results and features a collection of original works for guitar and piano composed between 1950 and today by well-known and lesser-known Italian authors.

The journey begins in 1950 with one of the composers who, whether he wanted to or not, most strongly linked his name to that of the guitar, namely the Florentine Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (1895-1968) who wrote the Fantasia op. 145 in two short, insightful movements, dedicating it to Andrés Segovia and his pianist wife Francesca ‘Paquita’ Madriguera Rodon. A miracle of balance that reflects undeniable French influences but also shows an extroverted and personal lyrical inspiration, always hovering between Spanish atmospheres and an all-Italian, or rather, Tuscan cantability.
Another 'conjugal' piece that bears the title of Fantasia is the single-movement work that the Brescia-born composer Franco Margola (1908-1992) wrote in October 1979 and dedicated to the duo formed by guitarist Guido Margaria and his wife Emilia. It is a quiet work with neo-Baroque movements in which the writing, however, shows a happy hand in making the two instruments converse, cunningly seeking a constant alternation rather than an actual superposition.
Another piece dedicated to the Margaria duo is the short Improvviso, composed between November 1979 and spring 1980, which differs little from the atmospheres of the previous work.
Another Fantasia – and another piece dedicated to the Margaria duo – is the composition that Carlo Mosso (1931-1995), a Piedmontese of transalpine origin, wrote in 1980. A meditative and restless, wooden page, full of archaisms and at the same time a bearer of a resigned modernity, deliberately stark, built around a few melodic cells developed through a modal path that in some points recalls both the language of the Swiss Frank Martin and the beloved Gian Francesco Malipiero.
The Divertimento a due by Adriano Lincetto (1936-1996) from Padua, composed in 1981 and divided into three movements (Molto lento. Poco mosso – Allegro molto – Finale. Molto moderato e cantabile. Allegro vivo) is undoubtedly a less sibylline work, far from any complication, both modern and postmodern, woven with a modal language in which numerous seventh chords are found.
This rich anthology concludes with two pieces written expressly for Lapo Vannucci and Luca Torrigiani and dedicated to them. Il silenzio del tempo by Luigi Giachino (1962) from Turin dates back to 2015 and is a four-movement suite tinged with jazz inflections and almost impressionistic flavours.
Quite different is Winter Time by Giuseppe Crapisi (1967) from Sicily, which in a striking page of about six minutes mixes repetitive and stubborn gestures typical of minimalism with a more elegiac vein. In this case, the two instruments rarely alternate, often weaving their delicate or rhythmic textures mostly simultaneously.

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.
