Concierto Tradicionuevo is a contemporary classical composition by French composer Patrick Roux. The piece was composed in 2010 and premiered on May 15, 2011, at the Salle Cortot in Paris, France. The concerto is written for solo guitar and chamber orchestra and is divided into three movements. The first movement, titled "Allegro con brio," is characterized by its energetic and lively tempo. The guitar and orchestra engage in a playful dialogue, with the guitar taking on a virtuosic role. The movement is marked by sudden shifts in dynamics and tempo, creating a sense of excitement and unpredictability. The second movement, "Andante," is a slower and more contemplative section. The guitar takes on a more melodic role, with the orchestra providing a gentle accompaniment. The movement is marked by its lyrical and expressive melodies, which are reminiscent of traditional folk music. The final movement, "Allegro vivace," returns to the energetic and lively tempo of the first movement. The guitar and orchestra engage in a frenzied dialogue, with the guitar taking on a more percussive role. The movement is marked by its complex rhythms and intricate interplay between the guitar and orchestra. Overall, Concierto Tradicionuevo is a dynamic and engaging composition that blends elements of classical music with traditional folk music. Roux's use of the guitar as a solo instrument adds a unique and distinctive flavor to the piece, while the chamber orchestra provides a rich and varied accompaniment. The concerto is a testament to Roux's skill as a composer and his ability to create music that is both innovative and accessible.
