Figures Argentines
Quatuor Voce & Pablo Marquez, guitar
The Voce quartet invites the amazing guitar player Pablo Marquez to explore modern Argentinian music, playing the young and the old Alberto Ginastera : the quartet (1948) is very much influenced by folk music, and the guitar sonata (1976), his late manner’s masterpiece, explores all the possibilities of the instrument. The new piece by the Argentinian composer Fernando Fiszbein, commissioned by les Voce, plays with the voice of the legendary tango singer Carlos Gardel, answering to the joyful Boccherini Quintet that opens this colorful program.
