Summary of This Score
Allow me to express my fondness for "Songe Capricorne," a piece which, at little cost (the fifth string is tuned to B), will take you on a "pleasant" journey noticeably different from those we usually encounter. Here is a tribute to campanellas, cascading arpeggios, and harmonic sounds, omnipresent in a truly harpistic universe where contemporary sonorities and modal reminiscences seem to amiably compete... (R.D.)
This score for classical guitar emphasizes the search for timbres and sound projection. The campanellas (resonance playing) invite careful legato, management of open strings, and clarity of voices, while the cascading arpeggios demand a flexible, steady, and nuanced right hand. The harmonics, very present, add an airy dimension and require left-hand precision, especially in transitions and position shifts.
With its writing both contemporary and enriched with modal inflections, "Songe Capricorne" is an excellent choice to enrich a recital program or to work on an accessible contemporary repertoire. The difficulty level 4 corresponds to a musician already comfortable with shifts, rhythmic stability, and resonance control, wishing to develop a more colorful and "harpistic" aesthetic on the guitar.
