Concierto de Aranjuez - Paco de Lucia on Guitar



This most popular of all conciertos was composed by Joaquin Rodrigo and is the crowning pinnacle of Spanish classical music. Rodrigo was quoted as saying that this interpretation by flamenco guitarist Paco de Lucia was the best of all that he had heard in his lifetime. Who am I to argue with Maestro Rodrigo? By the way, you can see the blind composer at the very end of this performance where he congratulates Paco de Lucia and the orchestra on their fine performance!
