| |  | Rodrigo: Concierto de Aranjuez
Xuefei Yang (guitar) Orquestra Simfonica de Barcelona, Eiji Oue EMI Classics releases Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez with Chinese guitarist Xuefei Wang. The album also includes the World Premiere recording of a new concerto by Stephen Goss, Albéniz Concerto, based on four of the composer’s most well-know works for guitar, the rarely recorded transcriptions for guitar of Albéniz’s suite España – 6 hojas de album and Rodrigo’s Invocación y danza, which Xuefei played for her international debut in Madrid when she was just 14 years old. “Concierto de Aranjuez has been recorded countless times, but Xuefei Yang brings her own exuberant individuality to it, demonstrating brilliant, fleet-fingered technique in the outer movements and a subtle flamenco earthiness in the romantic second movement that you don't often hear...she captures all the sunshine and dusty clamour of the music.” Classic FM Magazine, February 2011 **** “Thanks to Yang's synthesising mind, of which her frightening technical fluency and musical intelligence are but two manifestations, this programme works a treat. The Rodrigo concerto is replete with that barely contained explosiveness that recalls Argerich at her best” Gramophone Magazine, February 2011 “Xuefei Yang's touch throughout this programme of Spanish pieces is stunning, with nimble fingering of trills and runs, and subtly emotional phrasing in the slower passages...Albeniz's "Espana" suite offers Yang space to display her full solo talents, using a guitar with a more mellifluous, rounded Spanish tone.” The Independent, 5th November 2010 **** “the performances won’t please all ears: clipped, stark and with a hard sound from the Elias Quartet. It works best in the slow movements, where the strings bring out the sinuous false-relations, and when they temper their austerity with nimble articulation and cheery ornaments. The guitarist, too, seems to shirk from romanticising the music in any way. But it’s all done with crystalline clarity.” The Times, 4th February 2012 *** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Rodrigo: Guitar Music Volume 2
Rodrigo’s music for solo guitar is not extensive but represents an important pillar of the repertoire, ranging from vignettes to sonatas over a six-decade period. The 1933 Toccata was rediscovered in 2005 and has since provided an ambitiously virtuosic vehicle for today’s guitarists. Rodrigo flecked his works with elements of fantasy, flamenco and bird song while Un tiempo fue Itálica famosa, one of his very greatest works in the genre, is superbly impassioned. The tender Pastoral, originally for piano, is here transcribed for guitar by Jérémy Jouve whose first volume in this series (8570286) received a three-star review (“The young French guitarist plays brilliantly”) in the Penguin Guide. |

| |  | Guitar Recital: Adriano Del Sal
Adriano Del Sal is one of the most significant young guitarists of recent years, whose extraordinary musical talent and total technical control make his performances truly unforgettable, and have earned him a dozen first prizes at national and international competitions. For his Naxos recital album he performs a wide-ranging selection of music by much-loved Spanish and Italian composers which showcases his affinity for the Romantic guitar repertoire. “Del Sal possesses a remarkable technique and a refined musical sensibility. This the Tarrega is all elegance, with subtle rubato and plenty of dynamic shading; the Sor is made to feel like early Beethoven, that is to say, a combination of portentousness and charm...the flamenco outbursts in the Rodrigo appropriately seem to come from a darkly smouldering core.” Gramophone Magazine, May 2011 | | | (also available to download from $5.75) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
