Simone Iannarelli was born in Rome in 1970, and is currently professor of guitar at the Institute of Fine Arts of the University of Colima in Mexico. El último café juntos, or, in its original Italian, L'ultimo caffè insieme, is dedicated to the memory of the renowned French guitarist Roland Dyens (1955–2016), with whom Iannarelli studied in Paris. It is a lyrical and nostalgic evocation of a last coffee between master and pupil, and exists in versions both for solo guitar and guitar with string orchestra, as recorded here: this gives an opportunity for the strings to reflect upon and amplify some of the melodic gestures and harmonic movements of the soloist while retaining the music's essentially intimate character. This version is dedicated to Pablo Garibay.
