Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo was one of the foremost guitar composers of the twentieth century. His 1939Concierto de Aranjuez, with its evocative Andalusian colour, indelible melody and subtle and effective orchestration, is assuredly one of the genre’s best loved works. The passionate and vital Concierto Andaluz is scored for guitar quartet and orchestra, whilst in the Concierto MadrigalRodrigo employs variation form to brilliant effect.
