Questa antologia nasce dall’esigenza di disporre di un repertorio di musiche per chitarra e pianoforte in grado di coniugare la qualità musicale alla facilità d’esecuzione. I brani contenuti in questi volumi sono infatti accessibili a studenti al primo, al secondo o al terzo anno di studio e sono particolarmente indicati per gli allievi delle scuole medie a indirizzo musicale (SMIM).

Ringrazio l’amico e collega Nicola Colacurcio per aver aderito con entusiasmo al progetto, e soprattutto gli studenti dell’Istituto Comprensivo di Bussoleno (Torino) che sono state le nostre inconsapevoli cavie. Gloria e Cecilia, Eric e Simone, Marco e Luca, Rebecca e Sofia, Alessandro e Sem: è soprattutto a voi che è dedicato con affetto questo lavoro.

This anthology is designed to meet the demand for a repertoire of pieces for guitar and piano that combine musical quality with ease of performance. Indeed, the music compiled in these volumes is accessible to students at the first, second or third level of study.

With grateful thanks to my friend and colleague Nicola Colacurcio for supporting the project so enthusiastically, and above all to the pupils of Istituto Comprensivo di Bussoleno (Turin) who were our unwitting guinea pigs. Gloria and Cecilia, Eric and Simone, Marco and Luca, Rebecca and Sofia, Alessandro and Sem: this work is particularly and affectionately dedicated to you.

Fabio Rizza
