About this album

Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez and Fantasía para un gentilhombre are landmark 20th-century guitar concertos, celebrated for their lyrical writing and vivid Spanish character. This 1969 recording brings together Joaquín Rodrigo, guitarist Narciso Yepes and the Orquesta Sinfónica de RTVE in performances that helped define how both works were heard on record. Concierto de Aranjuez remains the composer’s best-known score, admired for its haunting Adagio, while Fantasía para un gentilhombre extends Rodrigo’s blend of neoclassical form and Iberian colour. Together they show why Rodrigo’s concertos became central to the classical guitar repertoire.
