Julia Florida

Arranger:   

Written in Costa Rica in 1938, Julia Florida, has entered the standard guitar repertoire as one of the instrument's true masterpieces. Although it is not highly complex technically, it is a showpiece for the depth of artistry of those who play it. It requires the kind of consummate technique that commands all the subtleties of expressive execution. Thought to be a tribute to one of his guitar students, a young woman related to a good personal friend, it is the kind of piece that guitar is meant to play -flowing, a bit mysterious, a catalyst for as many interpretations as those who perform it can articulate.

As an arranger for a different instrument - the carillon - I felt the written expressive components were almost superfluous. However, they can provide helpful clues to the essence of a piece that provides abundant opportunities for individual discoveries. No matter how often the piece is performed, it never becomes tedious, but rather uncovers ever more freshness in the performer's perspective.
