Olivier Mayran de Chamisso

Fairylands

In this collection of concert studies, Olivier Mayran de Chamisso (*1955) shows once again his mastery both as an instrumentalist and as a composer. He manages to bring out effectively in his programmatic pieces a variety of arpeggio techniques and the associated tonal peculiarities of the guitar. Their style and diction are reminiscent of the great tradition of the Spanish Romantic school of Francisco Tárrega, Miguel Llobet, but also of the great studies of Heitor Villa-Lobos. Pieces of medium difficulty to add to the concert and recital repertoire.
