Description: 'Music of the air' is how my 7-year-old daughter described the sound of this piece. 'Ariel', therefore, seemed a fitting title. One of my more ambitious pieces.

Surely this must be one of the best Preludes ever composed for the guitar. Full of invention, life and energy. I love it.

Ariel

Sonata in A Major 1/Allegro moderato

&ldquo;Trapped in their cozy catacombs, the couples have made sex by turns their toy, their glue, their trauma, their therapy, their hope, their frustration, their revenge, their narcotic, their main line of communication and their sole and pitiable shield against the awareness of death.&rdquo;&mdash;Time One of the signature novels of the American 1960s, Couples is a book that, when it debuted, scandalized the public with prose pictures of the way people live, and that today provides an engrossing epitaph to the short, happy life of the &ldquo;post-Pill paradise.&rdquo; It chronicles the interactions of ten young married couples in a seaside New England community who make a cult of sex and of themselves. The group of acquaintances form a magical circle, complete with ritualistic games, religious substitutions, a priest (Freddy Thorne), and a scapegoat (Piet Hanema). As with most American utopias, this one&rsquo;s existence is brief and unsustainable, but the &ldquo;imaginative quest&rdquo; that inspires its creation is eternal. Praise for Couples &ldquo;Couples&#160;[is] John Updike&rsquo;s tour de force of extramarital wanderlust.&rdquo;&mdash;The New York Times Book Review &#160; &ldquo;Ingenious . . . If this is a dirty book, I don&rsquo;t see how sex can be written about at all.&rdquo;&mdash;Wilfrid Sheed,&#160;The New York Times Book Review

Couples by John Updike, read by Ari Fliakos

This track is very fascinating and it is based on the environment because Cere is the goddess of cereal.

In Memoriam Ida Presti Prelude No1 Gilbert Biberian, Luke Dunlea solo guitar

I am a composer of classical guitar music and a singer-songwriter. My influences range from Bach to Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) including Leo Brouwer, Kate Bush, The Beatles, Queen, Mike Oldfield, AC/DC, Fiona Apple, Andrew York, Rachmaninov, Philip Glass, Joni Mitchell, Jethro Tull, Beck and Radiohead. My music is melodically driven and always with a sense of song not far away. I have written two books of classical guitar music: a collection of English Folk Songs and British Christmas Carols, both for Mel Bay (2021).
