Duo Tandem / Belevi Guitar Duos Of Kemal Belevi CD

Kemel Belevi's music is steeped in the colors and atmosphere of the eastern Mediterranean, and his aim is 'to create beautiful music' based on melodies and rhythms that have been absorbed from the folk music of Greece, Turkey and the Middle East. Belevi's own arrangements of works such as the evocative Suite Chypre and the richly varied Cyprian Rhapsodies have significantly extended the repertoire for two guitars. The Duo Tandem are drawn towards this composer's skillful modernity and his celebration of traditional heritage reimagined within the sound world of the classical guitar.
