David Tanenbaum, chair of the guitar department, released through Naxos entitled “Double Echo.”

This album of guitar concertos from the Americas features pieces composed for David Tanenbaum. Building on a tradition of prominent guitarists generating repertoire through new commissions, these works present the guitar in a variety of settings. Aaron Jay Kernis’s concerto dips with ease into the world of pop music, whereas his Lullaby and Soliloquy are reflective, lyrical, and romantic. Roberto Sierra’s concerto asserts a rhythmic and percussive character, while Astor Piazzolla’s dark and sentimental double concerto is one of his least-known works.
