Episode 42 - The Early Guitar Scores (1954-1958) with Carlos Rafael Rivera

  • Summary

  • Returning guest Carlos Rafael Rivera joins us for our longest episode to date!

    In the opening portion of the show, Carlos takes us on an in-depth guided tour of the history of Spanish classical guitar music, providing a brilliant framework through which to view the music we'll be covering.

    After that, Carlos joins your humble hosts David, Yavar, and Clark for an exploration of three guitar-based Goldsmith radio scores: the Hallmark Hall of Fame installment "Simón Bolívar," plus the CBS Romance episodes "Córdoba" and "The Guitar." Additionally, we return to Goldsmith's early Toccata for Solo Guitar concert work, this time with expert insights from our guest.

    Finally, we take some time to catch up with Carlos on the work he's been doing in recent years, offering comments on and samples from projects like Lessons in Chemistry, Monsieur Spade, Ezra, Just Beyond, Chupa, and more!

    Despite lasting nearly as long as Simón Bolívar’s exile in Jamaica, we think there's a great deal to savor in this one. Listen in manageable chunks, or just sit back and spend the day with us. Enjoy!
