I
have known for many years the excellent work done by Paolo Pegoraro
and Stefano Viola at the "Francisco Tárrega" Guitar
Academy.
They are both teachers of the highest quality. This is demonstrated
by the high level that their pupils attain after studying there.
I know of no other centre that has such a good quality across the
board.
The young students amazed me from the first years I met them. They
were very good technically but also so expressive and dramatic in
their performances without exception. You could also sense that they
enjoyed performing for others. This desire to be expressive and enjoyment
of playing is the best tribute to the great work these teachers do
with their pupils.
Recently I heard several of the former students who are now young
concerts players and their playing of world class quality also shows
the great teaching they received at the Academy.

The
first time I was invited by the Farandola Association to hold a
masterclass at the "Francisco Tárrega" Guitar
Academy, I was deeply surprised hearing so much finest students
in one only day.
I think that the work done in this school is really fantastic; in
my life I had never met a so high level in other places in the world.
I think that Paolo Pegoraro and Stefano Viola are two great guitar
teachers, very important for this instrument. Moreover, the great
chance that this school offers inviting regularly the best international
performers allows to the young students to have a continuous and
constructive relation with the present concert world. I think that
in this way is really possible to receive a perfect musical education.
Once again I should like to tell my appreciation for the deep work
done at the Guitar Academy of Pordenone.

When
the Masters Paolo Pegoraro and Stefano Viola first asked me to
partecipate in the Festival they organize, I was extremely honoured
and happy; the International Guitar Festival of Friuli Venezia
Giulia was already known world-wide among guitarist as one of the
best of its kind, both for the calibre of the artists invited to
perform and for its light-hearted and lively atmosphere in which
seminars and masterclasses are held Ü the standard of which
have been unconditionally praised.
The masterclasses are open, not only to students of the Academy,
but also to those from other institutions subject to an entrance
examination, thus guaranteeing the maintenance of their high standard.
This shows the organizers determination to avoid a withdrawal into
sterile provincialism and a desire to broaden the ever-increasing
scale of this event. The large presence of foreign students in the
Academy lays to waste any danger of provincialism and increases the
amount of coverage dedicated to the Festival by the press.
Teachers are invited to hold seminars an subjects of great interest
to the students. It is hardly surprising, in the light of this, that
some of the most promising talent in the current guitar scene is
to be found among the students of the Academy. None of this would
be possible without the Academy‰s two teaches who are themselves
both exceptional musicians as well as excellent teachers; this is
reflected, without a doubt. In the extremely musical and exquisite
playing of all the students of the Academy that I have had the honour
and pleasure to teach. |

I must compliment
you on the excellent work you are doing on the finishing touches,
in your pure and uninterested approach in the service of Music
without affectation nor giving in, without abandoning the beauty
of phrasing and sound. Qualities that abound in the execution of
your pupil Andrea del Sal, would have pleased Maestro Segovia,
had he had the occasion to hear them.
All this derives from an integral attitude towards this study, that
gives little or nothing to he who is unable to dedicate his whole
self to achieve an artistic end. Not merely in itself, but taken
as a ?gbeginning?h of a journey...longer than our own lifetime... |
