Duo Naima - Duo Concertante Op. 23 by Luigi Legnani, 2nd Movement Tema Con Variazioni

Duo Naima was formed in Belgium in 2021, and consists of Italian flautist Dario Caporuscio and Ukrainian guitarist Maria Shevchenko. The duo's repertoire ranges from early to contemporary music, and stands out for its search for an original approach to the classic flute and guitar duo, with a particular interest in the world of traditional music. The Duo Concertante Op. 23 by Luigi Legnani (1790 - 1877) is an example of the salon music typical of the Biedermeier movement of the 19th century: the growth of the middle class and their interest for art led to the development of a very accessible style of music and to the popularity of performers-composers of exceptional virtuosity who, for the first time in history, could support themselves financially through their concerts and the sale of their compositions. The Italian composer, virtuoso guitarist, tenor and luthier Luigi Legnani toured all over Europe, playing with musicians of the calibre of Liszt and Paganini. His technical research on the instrument led him to a guitar writing that was very innovative for the time, combining the style of Italian bel canto with the virtuosity of salon music.
