I had the fortune of knowing Oscar Trezzini through the TV program Natural Laws which was entirely devoted to this « highly distinguished luthier », showing his work, his way of choosing wood and building a guitar.
The sole fact of seeing him at work was enough to presume what I was about to hear when I would try his guitars in his workshop. And I was not mistaken. I visited him with a group of very good and very dear concert players and we all remained particularly astonished at their marvelous sound quality, the wonderful craftsmanship, the balance of sound all along the fretboard, and their sustain.
It’s a great thing to have a guitar like mine. It was what I always dreamed for. It allows me to grow in technique, to hear the velvety sound I long for, and feel motivated to study long hours during the night with the gentle illusion that the day will come when I will be a great concert player.
Thank you very much Oscar.
Rafael Verdoia
Rafael Verdoia was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He started studying with Oscar García and the brothers Luis and Oscar Casares, disciples of María Luisa Anido. He then followed studies in the Music Conservatory Juan José Castro with Victor Villadangos in guitar and Antonio Russo in Chamber Music. At present he is studying with Eduardo Isaac.
In 1995 he received a fellowship to attend the XVI Seminario Internacional de Guitarra in Porto Alegre, with very well-known guitar players, such as Abel Carlevaro, Eduardo Isaac, Mario Ulloa, Paulo Bellinatti, Brothers Sergio & Odiar Assad.
He played in famous concert halls of Buenos Aires and the whole of Argentina, such as the Teatro Argentino de La Plata, Teatro Alberdi (Tucumán), Festival Guitarras del Mundo 2002, CC Gral. San Martín, Alianza Francesa, Museo Fernández Blanco, Radio Nacional, Casa Rosada (Presidencia de la Nación), Museo Rómulo Raggio, Manzana de las Luces, Museo Histórico Nacional, etc.
In August 2003 he concluded the arrangements for guitar and baritone of “Flores Argentinas” by composer Carlos Guastavino. This work was particularly welcomed both by guitar players and singers, as it was the first arrangement for an accompanying guitar for these 12 popular songs. The great Argentine soprano Adelaida Negri proposed to prepare the piece together with contraalto Mariana Carnevali to be performed in La Casa de la Opera de Buenos Aires.
In August 2004 he presented his first CD, including music by Antonio Vivaldi, Carlos Aguirre and Celtic.
