About This Item
Spain, with it's location at the southern tip of western Europe, and it's exotic history, has developed a unique music tradition, more aligned, through the influence of the Islamic Moorish period, with the middle east than with the more northern parts of Europe. This cultural uniqueness has attracted hosts of non-Spanish composers to write 'Spanish' pieces many of which have become staples of the repertoire. This programme includes some favourites - but in unfamiliar guise - and some wonderful and little known gems too. Full of zest, fire and 'soul'. Several premiere recordings.
