Music reviews of The Segovia Collection, Vol. 8: Platero & I And Other Works By Castelnuovo-Tedesco

Music Review: Superb Segovia
Rating: 5 Stars

If you enjoy the evocative music of Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco, this CD is seriously delicious. "Platero y Yo" is a volmue of poems about Ramon Jimenez and his donkey, Platero. For these simple, eloquent and ingratiating works, Jimenez won the Nobel Prize. Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco's setting of some of the poems is not programme music but the source of the inspiration is plain enough. There is warmth and intimacy in the music, as in the poems themselves, though the music betrays a more modernist sensibility. I do agree, however, that the other selections on this CD are sufficiently different in mood as to make it somewhat jarring to listen to the whole CD in one sitting. Nevertheless, the guitar quintet is terrific, as is the Tonadilla dedicated to Segovia himself. The performances are excellent, of course.

Description of The Segovia Collection, Vol. 8: Platero & I And Other Works By Castelnuovo-Tedesco

Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco was one of the many composers who were inspired to create a large body of excellent guitar music by Segovia's artistry. The pieces from Platero and I included on this disc come from a sort of Spanish Peter and the Wolf and may be performed separately or with narration. The composer's respect for Segovia is more obviously represented by the Tonadilla on the Name of Andrés Segovia, which is, needless to say, very well played by its dedicatee, as are all of the pieces on this enjoyable disc. --David Hurwitz
