Oh my... I always can't constrain tears, listening to Adagio from Concierto de Aranjuez.

Rodrigo had a fantastic flair for the dramatic. This is my favorite piece of music written for the guitar that I have heard so far. Of the performances that I have heard, the one by Segovia was probably the best. John Williams performance in his concert at Alhambra was also excellent.

He oido que el adagio del Concierto de Aranjuez trata del perdido de un hijo... no sé de seguro, pero puedo creerlo todas las veces que oigo el movimiento final de la obra. Simplemente increible, un lamento de proporciones tan grandes.

interesting that rodrigo is identified with 'classical guitar'. this seems because of his most famous work, the concierto de aranjuez (an orchestral piece that makes me cry). yes, he revitalized the spanish guitar in western art music, despite the fact that he didn't play the spanish guitar at all. nevertheless, the guitar is in his concertos, not in the man. the man was a great spanish composer of neo-classicism, incorporating elements of spanish folklore (hence, the guitar) in his work (he composed for flute and cello as well). and this characterizes his music, what do you think ?
