Description
These works for guitar and orchestra are the most well-known of his catalogue and Joaquín Rodrigo owes his fame to them. However, in this album, the protagonists are other works, which, despite being less well-known, are no less relevant and have equally exalted the Spanish guitar repertoire. According to the composer himself, his blindness caused by diphtheria at the age of three led him to the path of music. He began studying solfège, violin, and piano at the age of 9. Later on, he began studying harmony and composition. Finally, in 1927, he moved to Paris, where he studied with Paul Dukas for five years. There he met Ravel, Falla, Stravinsky, and Milhaud, as well as his wife, Turkish pianist Victoria Kamhi (Istanbul, 1902 – Madrid, 1997), who was instrumental in making Rodrigo’s work internationally known.
