COMMEMORATIVE RECORDING
JOAQUÍN RODRIGO CENTENARY

A collection, consisting of twenty two CDs, which includes some first recordings by outstanding performers of the day, as well as a re-issue of other recordings of artistic interest.

The first volume contains 11 CDs, the last one including historical recordings with Victoria de los Ángeles, Montserrat Caballé, Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Antoni Ros Marbá, Nicanor Zabaleta, Miguel Zanetti...

The second volume, with 12 CDs, includes: orchestral Works, Works for guitar, Works for piano, Works for voice and piano, and Works for voice and orchestra.

 

To carry out this project, with the effort of many institutions, it was necessary to record pieces that had not yet been recorded and to remasterize real catalogue jewels with indisputable world figures: Plácido Domingo, Manuel Barrueco, Pepe and Ángel Romero, Joaquín Achúcarro, Jesus Lopez Cobos, Manuel Galduf, Agustín León Ara...

With the participation of Miquel Ramón, María Rodríguez, Lola Casariego, María José Suárez, Emilio Sánchez as vocal soloists. Choir and Orchestra of the Community of Madrid, under the direction of Miguel Roa.

"...this is a very solid and substantial work, a good example of a tendency in composition that was important in its day - not only in Spain, - of artistic value that can be objectively classified as high, and fruit of the inspiration of a universally acclaimed composer, author of many works which testify to the naturally captivating and communicative power of his music."

Jose Luis García del Busto
