CELEDONIO ROMERO: SUITE ANDALUZA | | | Pepe Romero (1944) was born in Malaga, Spain. His first and only teacher was his father, the legendary Celedonio Romero. Pepe Romero has been giving concerts since the age of seven; his first professional appearance was in a shared concert with his father. The title of one of his most successful recordings reflects this relationship with his father: Songs My Father Taught Me.
Pepe Romero’s playing has inspired a number of 20th century Spanish composers. Joaquín Rodrigo, Federico Moreno Torroba, Rev. Francisco de Madina and Lorenzo Palomo have all composed guitar works for him.
He has made more than fifty recordings, including over twenty concertos with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields and Sir Neville Marriner, among them the highly popular Concierto de Aranjuez.
With his father and brothers he established the Romeros Quartet. This guitar quartet is unique and the Romeros are often referred to as „The Royal Family of the Guitar”. King Juan Carlos I knighted Pepe Romero and his two brothers into the Order of „Isabel la Catolica” in February 2000. |

| | | Yaakov Barzilai
"The poem is a shout, prose is speech."– declared Yaakov Barzilai in an interview. The artist, known in Israel principally as a poet, recently published a novel to the considerable surprise of his readers. A Hungarian translation of the book, “Candlelight at Dawn”, appeared in 1999. “After four volumes of poetry, natural curiosity led me to the novel and it was this curiosity that threw down the challenge which I took up with pleasure. I have not yet met a single reader who did not feel that the writer of the novel was a poet. This was the fate of the Israeli edition: my Hebrew readers were fully aware that the voice of the soul, the purest source of poetry, could be heard from the depth of the novel.” The two defining experiences in Barzilai’s life have been “the terrible memory of youth, the suffering without perspective, then the shock of the beginning of new life”, the uniquely dynamic and optimistic world view which marked the first decades in the history of Israel. These memories are condensed from fragments of memory images into poems and novels. |

After graduating from the Paris Conservatoire she earned a diploma in piano, chamber music and the history of music at the École Normale Alfred Cortot. After completing her studies she moved to Italy (where she still lives) and perfected her knowledge under the famous Italian pianist, Maria Tipo. At the same time she earned a first prize for virtuosity in Geneva. She has appeared in the leading concert halls in Paris and also gives many concerts abroad, in Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Belgium, Romania, Turkey, Russia and the United States. She is particularly at home in the musical world of Mozart and Beethoven. Evidence of her familiarity with Viennese classical music is the first prize she won in the international “Henessy–Mozart” competition where the jury members included Paul Badura-Skoda and Brigitte Massin.
She worked for a while as assistant to Maria Tipo and from 1994 has taught at the Conservatoire of the Province of South Tyrol. She is also a regular teacher at the master courses in the Accadémia Musicale Umbra in Perugia. |

BEETHOVEN: SONATA IN C MINOR, OP. 30/2 | | | György Pauk (1936) is one of our few violinists who still keeps alive, carries on and teaches the legacy of the world famous Hungarian violin school hallmarked by the names of József Szigeti, Zoltán Székely and Ede Zathureczky. At his proposal the violin department he heads at the London Royal Academy of Music has been named after Ede Zathureczky, teacher at the academy. In the late fifties Pauk won a number of international competitions (the Paganini violin competition in Genoa, the Munich sonata competition together with Péter Frankl, the Jacques Thibaud competition). In 1961 he settled in London. His repertoire is very broad: it includes all of Mozart’s violin concertos and sonatas – many of which he has also recorded – all the Schubert sonatas and Bartók’s works for violin. He is also committed to contemporary music and has given many first performances (Penderecki, Lutoslawski, Schnittke). As a concerto soloist he has worked with the greatest conductors: Pierre Boulez, Sir Colin Davis, Lorin Maazel, Sir Georg Solti and others. His regular chamber music partners are Péter Frankl and Ralph Kirschbaum. After a long absence he performed again in Budapest in 1973 and has since given a number of concerts in Hungary. | | | (The Fazioli Festival is sponsored
