Blackbird by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Arr. by C. Teves
An arrangement can be an exact transcription of a song, or in this case, a more loose impression of the original piece. Christopher Teves' arrangement of Blackbird captures the original feel and beauty of Lennon and McCartney's famous tune, while adding an original and unique approach to the work that sounds great as a guitar trio.
Through a Radiant Light, Floating Away, mvt. 1, Christopher Teves
Christopher composed this piece for AGT in 2022. This work is dedicated to our teacher and mentor, Clare Callahan, in celebration of her 50 year Anniversary Concert at the Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music, and in gratitude for a lifetime of passion and commitment to countless students. The opening harmonics and interwinding melodies create a light and fanciful opening to this two movement work.
Through a Radiant Light Vivo, mvt. 2, Christopher Teves
Vivo is a joyful celebration of music and flows seamlessly from the first movement of this work. The driving rhythm and melodic interplay express the joy, happiness, and gratitude we all feel performing together.
Brazilliance, Laurindo Almeida
Written by the great Brazilian guitarist and composer, Brazilliance is a staple of the classical guitar trio repertoire.
Misionera, Fernando Bustamente, arranged by Julie Goldberg
Argentinian composer F. Bustamente (1915-1979) originally composed Misionera for the piano. The title refers to the region of Latin America that extends between Paraguay and Brazil. Since its earliest performances Misionera has been arranged for an array of solo and ensemble combinations. This arrangement playfully exchanges the melody and harmonic material among the three guitars.
