The publication opens with Salut furCaudwell by Helmut Lachenmann ((1935), a piece composed in 1977, with a performance by theDuo resulting from a long experience developed together with the composer. Characterized by apermanent tension, the score has become a reference work for the repertoire for two guitars, apiece by Lachenmann follows iv 14 by Mark Andre (1964), a piece of "intense fragility", terms inwhich, says Elisa Constable, "all the compositional challenges of Mark Andre's work, profoundlyoriented towards the search for an ineffable artistic and spiritual." This intense journey of listeningto the textures of different compositional languages ends with Trans, in five movements, by PascaleCriton (1954), an author who in his research he particularly explores the variability of sound andthe spatialization of listening.
