Description:

Penderecki's "Guitar Concerto" is included! Polish Brilliance and Master Penderecki! This is the third in a series of guitar concertos by contemporary Polish composers, including works by Krzysztof Penderecki (1933-2020), a contemporary Polish master who sadly passed away recently. Penderecki's "Guitar Concerto" is an arrangement of the solo part of the "Viola Concerto" composed in 1983 and arranged for guitar in 2018 by the talented Polish guitarist Piotr Przewola, who is also the soloist in this recording. Přebola's guitar arrangement is the official version, so to speak, endorsed by Penderecki! The blend of Penderecki's orchestration and the solo guitar parts is also noteworthy. The soloist, Piotr Przewóla, is a Polish talent who studied guitar with Marcin Zalewski at the Chopin University of Music in Warsaw. He has won more than 20 guitar competitions, mainly in Poland, including 19 first prizes and three grand prizes. Tokyo M-Plus
