Here’s a fresh new video that really grabbed us: New York-based Australian guitarist Rupert Boyd<\/a> playing Astor Piazzolla’s wonderfully dynamic “Oto\u00f1o Porte\u00f1o” on a 1976 Miguel Rodriguez “Churchdoor” guitar, previously owned by Celin Romero and John Dearman\u2014but more recently part of the Russell Cleveland Collection currently being sold piece-by-piece by Guitar Salon International <\/a>(Santa Monica, Calif.), who shot the video. This particular piece is part of a four-movement work the great Argentinian composer wrote between 1965 and 1970 devoted to the four seasons\u2014”Oto\u00f1o” being autumn.<\/p>\n

“Oto\u00f1o Porte\u00f1o,” arranged by Sergio Assad, is also the lead-off track on Boyd’s excellent just-released\u00a0CD, Fantas\u00edas<\/a><\/em>, which features a stimulating blend of pieces\u2014several billed “fantasia” in the title\u2014by composers from many eras, including John Dowland, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Luigi Legnani, Byron Yasui (the gorgeous “Fantasy on a Hawaiian Lullabye”), fellow Aussie Phillip Houghton, Manuel de Falla, and others; it’s a fine album.<\/p>\n

Incidentally, in the Fall 2015 issue <\/a>of Classical Guitar<\/em>, we published a story about a 1973 Rodriguez Churchdoor guitar that came through GSI.<\/p>\n
