MEDITERRANEAN ECHOES


Alexandra Christodimou, Yannis Petridis (guitars)
2004, LYRA General Publishing Company, 1CD/DDD, CD 1040, 56  min.

Alexandra Christodimou and Yannis Petridis are considered as one of the most important guitar duos in our country, with a carrer that already counts 17 years of remarkable appearances in Greece and abroad. As the title of "Mediterranean Echoes" implies, their new work includes works by composers by Mediterranean countries, originals or adapted for two guitars, covering a broad period of musical creation for guitar, allowing the duo to be tested in all styles .

Familiar works such as Boccherini's "Quintet for Guitar and String Quartet" or Adagio from Rodrigo's "Concierto d' Aranjuez", De Falla's "Spanish Dance" and "Serenata Andaluza" (transriptions) are combined with original works by Mario Gangi, Pierre Petit and our own Costas Grigoras. The sdmart selection of works has resulted in a very interesting and well-played CD for classical guitar lovers.
