Duarte – Guitar, including readings from the unpublished autobiography of John W. Duarte, along with photos and videos representing his musical life. Although John W. Duarte was well-known as a composer of guitar music, he also wrote several song cycles and single songs, starting in 1950. This film documents Duarte’s early life, his teenage beginnings on the guitar and his subsequent career, featuring music from 1945-2002. The songs are interspersed with guitar solos and a duet featuring a wide variety of international players. Duarte’s primary modus operandi was the use of melody and many of the pieces here are characterised by his joy in the use of the vocal line – whether it is sung or played. Many people, listed below, have contributed to the making of this film, which I hope you will enjoy. At c.100 minutes long, it’s not short, so settle down and enjoy some great performances.
