"Concierto": a guitar that looks to the future through tradition.

Pubblicato il 27 settembre 2024 alle ore 07:00

The Concierto classical guitar stands as a tribute to the rich tradition of late 19th-century Spanish guitar-making, particularly to the legacy of master luthier Antonio de Torres Jurado. Recognized as the father of the modern guitar, Torres revolutionized the design and construction of the instrument, laying the foundation for what we now know as the classical guitar. His focus on resonance, projection, and the overall shape of the guitar transformed not only how guitars were built but also how they were played and heard.

Inspired by this tradition, the Concierto guitar has been designed concerning the principles established by Torres, but with a contemporary approach. Each component has been carefully selected and weighed to ensure the lightness that characterizes historic models. This meticulous process has allowed for the creation of an instrument that balances a deep, rich sound with a characteristic brightness—traits sought after in high-quality guitars.

The use of maple for the sides and back highlights the tonal qualities of the Concierto. This wood, prized for its tonal clarity and ability to project sound with great definition, is a nod to the attention to detail that Torres imparted to his constructions. While Torres frequently worked with cypress and rosewood, the use of maple in this model adds a modern freshness without sacrificing the essence of traditional sound.

The result of this careful craftsmanship is an extraordinary instrument that combines remarkable sustain with generous volume, filling any space with a rich, nuanced resonance. The Concierto not only honors Torres' legacy but also presents itself as an ideal choice for performers seeking a classical sound with a contemporary touch.
