Program Notes:

The Guitar Concerto (2010) is the result of a long-standing friendship with the Brazilian guitarist Luiz Mantovani. As students in Boston, we often imagined how a new concerto for Luiz would sound. When Maestro Doron Solomon, himself an accomplished guitarist, approached me regarding a new orchestral work for the Beer Sheva Sinfonietta, the idea of a guitar concerto was enthusiastically accepted.

The concerto consists of four interconnected movements. Several motifs recur throughout the work, each treated and colored differently from one movement to the next. The orchestra, in a sense, serves as an extension of the guitar rather than a contrasting entity.

Guitar Concerto was written for Luiz Mantovani and the Israeli Sinfonietta Beer Sheva, with Doron Solomon as music director. Its commission was kindly supported by the Israel Ministry for Culture and Sport and by the Adele and John Gray Foundation.
