"Magnificent, insightful and powerful musical interpretation, a true treasure contributing to the universal cultural heritage and accretion to the French national Biblioteca." Album: The Art of Variations A live recording of the Egyptian artist and concert guitar master Sherif DAHROUG, interpreting a trinity of music masterpieces that figures high on the guitar and music literature pantheon. The artist is taking us on an immersive journey to discover the universe of the Variations and its metamorphoses through centuries of music creation concepts to become a unique composing art and genuine music form. The album is an insolite moment with the rich and flourishing art of the classical guitar, and with the spiritual yet virtuosic music of J.S.Bach and his monumental Ciaccona of the Partita BWV 1004, also the elegant and charming music of M.M. Ponce and his gigantesque Variations sur "Folia de EspaƱa" et Fugue and finally with the sophisticated and noble music of B.Britten and his ingenious, philosophical and timeless composition Nocturnal After John Dowland Op.70.
