Jorge Cardoso [full name: Jorge Ruben Cardoso Krieger] (born 26 January 1949) is a classical guitarist, composer, researcher, medical doctor (National University of Cordoba, Argentina) and teacher (Madrid Royal Conservatory). He has performed in Europe, America, Asia and Africa, and has frequently participated in international festivals, conferences, seminars, radio and television.

Life

Cardoso was born in Posadas, Misiones, Argentina, and studied the guitar with Lucas Braulio Areco and Luis J. Cassinelli. Having gained a scholarship from the National Fund for the Arts in Argentina, he was able to study with Maria Hermini A. de Gomez Crespo.[1] From the age of 14, Cardoso has won first prizes in several Argentine competitions, including at the Festival of Music of the Littoral at Posadas (1963), the National Folklore Composition Competition (1967), and the International Concourse of the Classical Guitar at Morón (1973).[2]

He now lives in Madrid, Spain, where he was the founder of the Madrid Guitar Chamber Orchestra and is President of the International Organization for Latin American Music Diffusion (GUIA). He was the Art Director of the Posadas International Guitar Festival (Argentina), the Alsace International Guitar Festival and the Morocco International Guitar Festival organized by the Instituto Cervantes in 1999. He is currently managing the International Festival Lucas B. Areco in Posadas, the Lambesc International Guitar Festival and the World's Guitar in the French Haut Verdon region. He frequently gives concerts across Europe, South America and Japan.

Works

Cardoso has composed over 400 works: solo guitar, duets (two guitars, guitar and violin, claves, viola, cello and flute), three and four guitars, string quartet, guitar and stringed, guitar and wind, concerts for guitar and orchestra, for guitar orchestra and symphony orchestra, string orchestra, and voice. These have been recorded by over 200 artists.[citation needed] By far his most popular piece is Milonga, from 24 Piezas Sudamericanas.

He also transcribed and made folkloric arrangements of music from several South American countries, from the Spanish Renaissance and Baroque periods, and from other nations and periods.
