Joaquin Rodrigo: Concierto de Aranjuez für Gitarre & Orchester auf LP

Product Information

Emanating from Los Romeros (the guitar quartet of father and three sons), Angel, along with his brother Pepe, forged distinguished solo careers and both recorded this popular concerto, Angel contributing to another sonic gem from the golden era of Andre Previn's reign at the LSO. Produced by the legendary Suvi Raj Grubb and engineered by Michael Gray at Abbey Road's No. 1 Studio on 28-30 March 1977. Cut at Abbey Road Studios from the original stereo analogue master tapes with the Neumann VMS80 lathe fed an analogue pre-cut signal from a specially adapted Studer A80 tape deck with additional playback head. Pressed on 180g vinyl to audiophile standards Featuring the original album artwork "...the new HMV record certainly deserves a most enthusiastic welcome and will disappoint no one... the colour of the orchestral backcloth is most appealing... The performance has great romantic warmth, the slow movement is particularly beautiful (the phrasing of the opening orchestral statement has a beguiling simplicity) and Angel Romero cannot but respond. He is an excellent player..." Ivan March, Gramophone, December 1977
