About

In this edition, Rodrigo’s deeply emotional works – a mixture of fiery passion, gentle introspection and profound beauty – are accompanied by a bonus album of Baroque guitar concertos including favourites by Vivaldi and Handel.

“I am delighted to receive from guitarist Slava Grigoryan, much admired by me, the great news about the reappearance on the market of the ABC Classics recording that features Joaquín Rodrigo’s three guitar concertos.

“This is a magnificent way to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the premiere of the Concierto de Aranjuez, which took place on 9 November 1940 in Barcelona. I also appreciate the opportunity to express my thanks to the two outstanding guitar soloists, Slava and his brother Leonard, for their masterful performance of Concierto madrigal which is so significant in the world of Joaquín Rodrigo’s compositions.”


So writes Cecilia Rodrigo, only daughter of composer Joaquín Rodrigo, on the occasion of this re-issue of Slava and Leonard Grigoryan’s iconic recording of her father’s music. The album was first released ten years ago to universal acclaim – including an ARIA Award nomination and five-star reviews across the Australian and international press.
