5.0 out of 5 stars Grandes Grabaciones Historicas, April 20, 2003

By	"scarlatti11" (Killeen, TX United States) - See all my reviews

Esta recopilacion de grabaciones
historicas de obras del compositor
espanol Joaquin Rodrigo(1901-1999),
nos acercan aun mas al espiritu de
las obras que otras grabaciones
mas recientes de las mismas obras.
Aqui podemos escuchar a la orquesta
sinfonica de San Antonio con los Romeros,
para quienes Don Joaquin compuso el
"Concierto Andaluz" que aqui interpretan.
Tambien, aparece Nicanor Zabaleta en el
interpretando el "Concierto Serenata" que
Don Joaquin compusiese para el en alrededor
de 1956. De las otras obras como el
"Concieto Madrigal" de 1967, el "Concierto
de Aranjuez" de 1939 y el "Concierto Pastoral"
para Flauta y orquesta; no se puede decir
que son interpretados por a quienes fue dedicado,
pero quienes lo interpretan lo hacen de
manera formidable. Narciso Yepes, gran guitarrista
que interpreta en una guitarra de diez
cuerdas, es gran conocedor de la obra de
Don Joaquin. Las Orquesta que aqui interpretan
estan entre las mejores del mundo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rodrigo is magnificent!, August 31, 2005

By	Timothy Tebalt (Columbia, SC USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I first discovered Rodrigo while living in New Orleans and hearing his Concerto Andalusia performed by the Louisiana Philharmonic. The guitar parts were performed by the famous Romeros, who also perform the guitar parts on this recording. Rodrigo's music has an uncanny ability to evoke feelings, sensations, and visualizations of rural Spain, as well as its romantic, and at times even medieval, past. Truly breathtaking. It is evident that this extraordinarily talented 20th century composer deeply loved his homeland.

No creo que haya mucho que decir sobre esta magnifica obra, quien ame la guitarra y en especial la guitarra clasica esta obligado a tener este Concierto en su coleccion.
