An email to the CGSV from abroad.
(Perhaps you may like to add to your collection of CD's)
I' m a Italian classical guitarist and my name is Antonio Rugolo (see info on http://www.antoniorugolo.com/home.asp
One month ago Stradivarius ( www.stradivarius.it ), has published my new cd dedicated entirely to the Italian-Uruguayan composer Guido Santórsola.
The CD contains never-released-before tracks including the first recording of "Concerto a cinque" played along with the Paul Klee string quartet.
For about five years I've been working on a study on the South-American repertoire of the 1900s. The first result of this long study was the release of the CD "Guitarreo" also by Stradivarius.
The CD, which includes the complete work for guitar of Carlos Pedrell, was critically acclaimed by the specialist press e.g. Amadeus, Classical guitar, Suonare news, Sei corde, Fronimo, Allegro, Classical Voice ecc
For many years I have been performing along with the flautist Nicoletta Di Sabato, who is also my wife. In 2006 we had played the Angelo Gilardino's "Sonatina-Lied n.3" for flute and guitar in World Première.
I also play with the Santórsola Guitar Quartet, in 2008 Angelo Gilardino had written for us "Sonetti Giuliani" recently played and recorded in World Premier.http://www.quartettosantorsola.it/
Yours sincerely
Antonio
