Takako Nishizaki, violin
Gerald Garcia, guitar

The use of the guitar with the violin is nothing new. Paganini, the great technical innovator of virtuoso violin-playing was also a guitarist, and his own favourite compositions were not so much the bravura concertos that he had written for the violin but the more intimate works for violin and guitar, the music he wanted to hear as he lay dying.

The combination of a plucked instrument and a melodic instrument is an older one, its origin in musical antiquity. The present recording offers a series of contemporary arrangements of traditional Chinese melodies and more recent compositions in national style.
