	Alberto Ginastera
		Alberto Ginastera was born in Buenos Aires and received a musical education starting at an early age.
		Alberto Ginastera was born in Buenos Aires - jokingly referred to by composer Saint-Saens as "Conservatoriopolis" because of the huge number of music conservatories to be found in that city, (Good grief, I haven’t even made it through the first sentence without a digression).
		Back to Ginastera I should probably mention that he was the head of the Center for Advanced Musical Studies in Buenos Aires; probably his most famous student the composer of tangos, Astor Piazzola.

	ginastera
		Argentinian-born composer Alberto Ginastera (1916-1983) has long established himself as one of the most important composers to have emerged from Latin America.
		Ginastera's oeuvre falls into roughly four divisions: an early intensely nationalistic period in which he incorporated the folk-songs and rhythms of his country, a middle period in which his nationalism is less explicit, and a third period which Ginastera termed "neo-expressionistic" in which he experimented with 12-tone method, polytonality and microtonal music.
		Finally, the Sonata for Violoncello and Piano, which was written in 1978 for his then wife Aurora Natola, is a work that Ginastera described as "logical, yet obsessive." A gentle, mysterious sectioninterrupts the storm in the first movement with guitar-like chords on the piano arpeggiated by the cello.

		Consequently, Ginastera was so appreciated and revered that he received several prestigious honours from several universities like National Academy of Fine Arts of Argentina (1957); the Brazilian Academy of Music (1958); the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1965) and the American Academy of Arts and Letters (1968).
		Ginastera was a perfectionist - he was extremely assiduous and scrupulous in his compositions.
		In the first period of his oeuvre, Ginastera often applied the materials from the Argentine folk music as stated above, which was very similiar to Bartók's approach in his compositions.

		Alberto Ginastera was born in Buenos Aires on 11 April 1916 and died on 25 June 1983 in Geneva.
		Ginastera moved away from these during the second period - subjective nationalism - although, for example, he still saw the role of the melody as very significant.
		By this time he was no longer using melodic or rhythmic motifs from folk music, nor any symbolic elements, and yet Argentinian traits remain: strong, obsessive rhythms, meditative adagios evoking the tranquility of the pampas, and magical, mysterious sonorities which recall his country’s impenetrable nature.

	Malcolm Miller applauds Alberto Portugheis in recital
		The riveting rhythms of Latin American folk dances and songs by Alberto Ginastera, one of Argentina's most original twentieth century composers, transformed the Regent Hall, Oxford Street, in central London, into an invigorating oasis of vibrant colour and light, at an enthusiastically received lunchtime recital given by the distinguished pianist Alberto Portugheis.
		There was especial crystalline articulation and beautifully supple phrasing in the second Sonatina in G, while the bristling momentum of the third sonata reminded one of the charming character of these miniatures, familiar to students yet often overlooked in recital.
		The highlight of the concert was the inspirited performance of music by Alberto Ginastera, a composer with whom Portugheis, also from Argentina, has a particular affinity, having recorded the integral piano works on CD.

		Born 11 April 1916 in Buenos Aries was composer Alberto Ginastera, who began writing when very young, but later destroyed his very early works.
		He labelled his own output into three periods - objective nationalism (the direct use of Argentinian folk elements), subjective nationalism (popular music used for structural purposes but not quoted directly) and neo-expressionism (a personal style of avant-garde, similar to that of Alban Berg, and using twelve-tone and random techniques).
		Ginastera's three operas (Don Rodrigo, Bomarzo and Beatrix Cenci) had success in America and Europe, although they alluded to sex and violence and caused some scandal.

		I became interested in Ginastera's piano music when I heard GREAT recordings of the piano sonata no. 1 and the argentine dances.
		Not being a pianist myself, I still manage to notice the defectiveness in the music, mainly that it lacks the rhythmic vitality and speed that I believe the music requires to be exciting.
		In most of Ginastera's music, rhythmic drive is of primary importance and pitch (though still important) is secondary.

	Alberto Ginastera: Estancia Op.8 Piano at Musicroom.com - Sheet Music for Musicians
		In 1941, Argentine composer Alberto Ginastera was commissioned to write a Ballet comprising One Act and Five scenes, that was based on and would depict pastoral life in Argentina.
		He closely based his score on the great epic poem Martín Fierro by Jose Hernandez, which tells the story of the Argentinean cowboys, or Gaucho — nomadic and heroic figures who are the subject of much of the country's folklore.
		Ginastera has not only captured the rhythms of life on a Estancia or ranch, but also provided an insight into the gaucho's now diminished way of life.

		Born in Buenos Aires in 1916, Alberto Ginastera lived to become unquestionably the most significant figure in Argentine music in the 20th Century.
		This CD combines Ginastera’s deep interest in the authentic folk music of his country alongside the more radical compositional techniques which gave his music such individual personality.
		Also in 1943, Ginastera composed his Overture to the Creole Faust, and it is, in a way an appendix to the Estancia dances, since it again deals with the life of the gauchos.
