Ruiz-Pipo / Monasterium Guitar Quartet Works With Guitar 3 CD

Antonio Ruiz-Pip? was a versatile musician whose compositions display both Andalusian and Parisian influences as well as reflecting his own life story of non-conformism coupled with an infinite love for humanity. This program reveals his inclination towards South American music, and in the duets Homenaje a Villa-Lobos and the quartet Am?rica she looks towards the habanera and samba (as well as a little boogie-woogie). Ancient sounds from a faraway land echo in the Homenaje a Antoniode Cabez?n, while Cuatropara Cuatro and A Sevilla are pure Andalusian Ruiz-Pip? in terms of their colors, rhythms and narrative.
