4.0 out of 5 stars A classic compilation from a living Master., 4 April 2002
By A Customer
If there were anyway that you could think of to sell a classical guitar C.D, the best idea would be to fill it with the well-known classics that will be sure sellers. Julian Bream knows this (or maybe just the producers do?) and he has put the two most exhilarating concertos for guitar (in my opinion) on one C.D. Malcolm Arnold is a great and masterful composer. This concerto shows off his precise orchestration, distinct knowledge of each instrument in the orchestra (and the guitar too I suppose) and his wonderful melody writing. This is quite a challenge for any guitarist (esp. the second movement!) and for the musical listeners, it's one of those pieces of music that even people that don't normally listen to classical music would enjoy.
In the likely event that you actually want to buy this C.D, and you know that the classical guitar exists, then I don’t need to write anything about Joaquin Rodrigo’s ‘Concierto de Aranjuez’. If I do, you are missing out on the jewel of 20th Century concertos. Listen now!
Again Julian (or his producer) knew that because of the Arnold and Rodrigo concertos on the disc, that Sir Richard Rodney Bennett would get maximum exposure. This is the best way also to give an unknown concerto (at least for me, I’m open to correction here) maximum exposure. I found that I didn’t give it to much attention (sorry Sir Bennett!) with my stereo programmed to play the other two concertos. But I decided to give it a chance, and it is well put together. It’s just difficult to compete against the two titans of guitar concerto.
As you can see, I didn’t really try to describe the music because I’m just urging you to listen to it for yourself. Julian Bream doesn’t need much of a mention at all. He is one the best in the world, and even if you have heard other interpretations, his versions are always authoritative. It’s a must have for any classical guitarist or aficionado. It is also classical music at it’s best, so I would recommend it to anyone with an interest of music of any type.
