Zsófia Boros

Duration42 Min

Carlo Domeniconi

Koyunbaba, Op. 19

The Hungarian-born guitarist, who now lives in Vienna, presents an even greater diversity of music on her second album than on her acclaimed debut, 'En otra parte'. This time, the selection includes contemporary works, jazz-inspired études, and compositions from Brazil, Argentina, Italy, and Azerbaijan – all performed with great imagination and artistic flair. The recording took place in November 2015 at the Auditorio Stelio Molo in Lugano, under the direction of Manfred Eicher. The album features, among other pieces, Zsófia Boros' interpretation of Egberto Gismonti's demanding 'Celebração de Núpcias' (known from 'Dança das cabeças'), Franghiz Ali-Zadeh's 'Fantasie', Al Di Meola's 'Vertigo Shadow', and Carlo Domeniconi's 'Koyunbaba', which is influenced by Turkish music. With her subtle and nuanced playing style, Boros gives these pieces of music a universal appeal.
