A cheerful concerto

Un Concerto davvero allegro

The guitar is the only instrument used in classical music that, in the collective imagination, is primarily associated with ­other musical genres. Its popular side, its fixed presence in pop and rock bands, the ease with which chords can be played on a guitar to accompany a group of friends singing on the beach, all contribute to its image and soul being much more layered even in a concert hall compared to a violin, a clarinet or a piano. When someone says “guitar,” those of us who regularly attend concert halls think of Giuliani, Rodrigo, Villa Lobos; the rest of the world thinks of the Beatles, San­tana and Eric Clapton.

La chitarra è l’unico strumento utilizzato nella musica classica che, nell’immaginario collettivo, viene associato soprattutto ad altri generi musicali. Il suo lato popolare, la sua presenza fissa nelle band pop e rock, la facilità con cui si possono suonare gli accordi su una chitarra per accompagnare un gruppo di amici che cantano sulla spiaggia, tutto contribuisce a rendere la sua immagine, anche in una sala da concerto, molto più sfaccettata rispetto a un violino, un clarinetto o un pianoforte. Quando qualcuno dice “chitarra”, chi di noi frequenta regolarmente le sale da concerto pensa a Giuliani, Rodrigo, Villa-Lobos; il resto del mondo pensa ai Beatles, a Santana, a Eric Clapton.

That is why composing my Concerto allegro, commissioned by Josep Vicent and ADDA·Simfònica Alicante for “El día de la guitarra 2023”, was a wonderful challenge for me: I wanted to try to add my score to those that History has handed down to us. I have in mind unattainable masterpieces like the Concierto de Aranjuez or Fantasía para un gentilhombre by Rodrigo or the delightful Concerto No. 1 by Castelnuovo Tedesco – and so, as I always do, I tried to invent a new way to continue the tradition from which we come. However, I also tried to pursue the energy, the power that the guitar conveys when used in jazz, pop, rock, blues; capturing its spirit. I did it with joy, enthusiasm, and cheerfulness. So, in the end, when I reread the score from the first to the last measure, I said to myself, “It truly is a lively concerto!” And I titled it accordingly, using this fantastic Italian word, allegro, that for the musicians has to do with speed but for the others it means “cheerful”, “happy”, “joyful”. Nicola Campogrande, June 2023

Ecco perché comporre il mio Concerto allegro, che mi è stato commissionato da Josep Vicent e da ­ADDA·Simfònica Alicante per “El día de la guitarra 2023”, è stata per me una sfida meravigliosa: volevo provare ad aggiungere la mia partitura a quelle che la Storia ci ha tramandato – ho in mente capolavori irraggiungibili come il Concierto de Aranjuez o la Fantasía para un gentilhombre di Rodrigo o il delizioso Concerto n. 1 di Castelnuovo-Tedesco – e così, come faccio sempre, ho cercato di inventare un nuovo modo per continuare la tradizione da cui proveniamo; ma ho anche cercato di perseguire l’energia, la potenza che la chitarra trasmette quando viene utilizzata nel jazz, nel pop, nel rock, nel blues, catturandone lo spirito. L’ho fatto con gioia, entusiasmo e allegria. Così, alla fine, quando ho riletto la partitura dalla prima all’ultima battuta, mi sono detto: “È davvero un Concerto allegro!”. E l’ho intitolato di conseguenza, usando questa nostra fantastica parola che per i musicisti ha a che fare con la velocità ma per gli altri evoca ovviamente gioia e felicità.
