Goffredo Petrassi (1904-2003)was one of the most significant Italian composers of the twentieth century-not least because he lived almost every minute of it! His interest in the guitar was not satisfied by a single piéce d'occasion; nor did it represent a lost opportunity, as was the case with some of the great composers of the century. On the contrary, at a certain point this interest was transformed into a predilection: the guitar became one of the standard-bearers of an entirely personal experimentation that Petrassi undertook more or less in the years 1957-58.
