Imaginary Animals releases the new programme Transclassical Concertos, recorded with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields at the Abbey Road Studios in London, conducted by Royal Shakespeare Company music director Bruce O’Neil. It is centred around Pedro H. da Silva’s first Portuguese guitar concerto in history and Lucia Caruso’s piano concerto “Light and Wind”.”Light and Wind” features Indian Ragas reimagined in a classical context are used throughout, as well as some unusual techniques: blackboard erasers, a felt-covered yardstick, guitar picks, drumsticks, and Lucía’s palms. It consists of three movements, each reflecting different natural phenomena. The first movement starts with a powerful windstorm, followed by the gradual settling of the storm, and then the appearance of stars in the sky. The following movement is a representation of the night air and a new day’s dawn, with a guitarist—Pedro—playing the strings of the piano like a guitar: using tremolo, rasgueado, and arpeggios for an otherworldly effect. The third movement reflects a change in weather from light rain to bright sunshine, followed by a violent tempest. This work is dedicated to Maria Connor, Rosa Mafalda Caruso, Emma Gilbert, and Judy Cope.
