Composed by Raffaele Calace. Arranged by Vincent Beer-Demander. Score. Les Productions d'OZ - Digital #DZ 4554. Published by Les Productions d'OZ - Digital (ZZ.DZ-4554).
The 5 Pezzi per mandolino solo presented here are part of the 31 works for solo mandolin composed by Raffaele Calace over the course of his career. With the exception of the first ten short pieces—later grouped into the collection Gemme Orientali, Op. 15—and the Ten Preludes for Solo Mandolin, considered the absolute pinnacle of Romantic mandolin writing, Calace composed twelve additional pieces in which the full range of mandolin techniques characteristic of his style is developed. Five of these pieces have been selected as among the most representative.
These compositions respond to pedagogical, concert, and editorial aims, and are fully integrated into the musical ecosystem Calace built around his activities as a teacher, luthier, performer, and publisher. In these works, a profound technical innovation for the mandolin is evident, through writing dominated by polyphony, a harmonic conception of the instrument, extensive use of tremolo, and the principal virtuoso techniques that would reach full maturity in the two concertos and the preludes.
Les 5 pezzi per mandolino solo présentées ici font partie des 31 œuvres pour mandoline seule composées par Raffaele Calace au cours de sa carrière. À l’exclusion des dix premières petites pièces, ultérieurement regroupées dans la collection Gemme Orientali op. 15, et des Dix Préludes pour mandoline seule, considérés comme le sommet absolu de l’écriture mandolinistique romantique, Calace a composé douze autres pièces dans lesquelles l’étendue des techniques mandolinistiques propre au compositeur y sont développées. Cinq de ces pièces ont été choisies parmi les plus représentatives. Ces compositions répondent à des attentes pédagogiques, concertistes et éditoriales, et s’inscrivent pleinement dans l’économie musicale que Calace avait construite autour de ses activités : enseignement, lutherie, concerts et édition. Dans ces pièces se manifeste une profonde innovation technique pour la mandoline, à travers une écriture dominée par la polyphonie, une vision harmonique de l’instrument et l’usage massif du trémolo, ainsi que les principales techniques virtuoses qui trouveront leur pleine maturité dans les deux concertos et les préludes.
