Mudarra Fantasia X Que Remeda El Arpa De Ludovico (tarrago) Guitar

Sixteenth century Spanish composer and vihuelist Alonso De Mudarra (also Alonso Mudarra) was born in Guadalajara, raised in aristocratic households, became a priest and later canon at Seville Cathedral in 1546 just before he published his vihuela book. The vihuela was a gut-Stringed instrument that has elements in common with the lute and Guitar. Mudarra published three volumes of music for the vihuela that comprised seventy-seven works and many innovations, including, in this piece, the first recorded use of folia, a musical framework. This Fantasia seeks to imitate the legendary harpist Ludovico, of the court of Ferdinand III of Aragon, using cross rhythms and chormaticism to recall the harp. Some performers choose to play this work at speed, recalling, perhaps, the 17th century definition of ‘folia’ as ‘mad’ and referring to a fast, noisy dance.

Xavier Montsalvatge: Habaneras De La Costa Brava

The style of the Habanera was born in Cuba a century ago as a descendant rhythm of the european country-dance, known in the island since the XVII centuary.

Cuban musicians adapted new rhythmic fomulae in the original melodic structure influenciated by negro caribean tradition.Their songs were of varied styles, but the nostalgia of many sailors that were in Cuba, made of the Habanera the most popular rhythm. The songs were learnt using only ears and the lyrics using only memory. This is the reason why there are so many versions.
