TY Zhang – ’Fuoco’ by Roland Dyens

== Tengyue ’TY’ Zhang plays ’Fuoco’ – 3rd movement of ’Libra Sonatine’ (1986) by Roland Dyens (1955-2016). TY Zhang is the world’s most prestigious guitar competition award winner – Guitar Foundation of American (GFA) International Concert Artist Competition (ICAC) 2017. Same year, he won the first prize on Alexander Frauchi Competition. Libra Sonatine (1986) was written in three movements: “India“, “Largo“, “Fuoco“, composed after Dyens had heart surgery. “Its three movements are an explicit portrayal of that very particular period of my life: first the chaotic India (before the operation), then the Largo (during it) and finally the Fuoco, in which the unrestrained rhythms depict a veritable incarnation of my return to life (and several guitarists often play this last movement as an independent piece)“, said Roland Dyens to the ’Classical Guitar’ magazine.
