Composer: Alexandre Tansman
Artists: Cristiano Poli Cappelli

Polish born and educated, Alexandre Tansman (1897-1986) was essentially a French com-poser, whose move to Paris in 1920 was the making of him. He won the admiration and friendship of both Ravel and Stravinsky, and took a central place in the exhilarating cul-tural life of the city’s Roaring Twenties, even if his guitar music bears little trace of ‘Jazz Age’ experimentation. The guiding force behind Tansman’s writing for the instrument lies, instead, in the person of Andres Segovía, catalyst and Svengali for so many composers in the first half of the 20th century.

The wandering harmonies of the Inventions and duet Sonatina may betray the influence of Ravel and Scriabin, with their echoes of French neoclassicism. The four Mazurkas, Suite in modo polonico and Hommage à Chopin, however speak clearly of Tansman’s deep love for his native Poland; a love infused with nostalgia and imbued with a tender melancholy. The Spanish dance-music from which Segovía drew his own distinctive aesthetic identity is reflected in Tansman’s transformations of vernacular French and Spanish melodies and rhythms in the Pièces Brèves and the Suite, which concludes with a movement simply ti-tled Segovia. However, Segovía made significant editorial interventions in Tansman’s scores, and Cristiano Poli Cappelli has returned to the composer’s original ordering and markings in works such as the portmanteau, six-movement Suite.
