Post Description

This is a great compilation of three early 1980s cds from London. First and foremost, the Rodrigo Concierto is the best you are likely to hear. The tempos are beautifully judged and the recording is a great example of how far ahead of most labels London was in its engineering in the early days of digital. El Amor Brujo was taken from another great Dutoit CD from the early '80s and there is not enough space to praise it here, except to say that it is every bit the equal of the Rodrigo recording. Nights in the Gardens of Spain comes from a great 1983 London CD with deLarrocha at her finest. Wonderful performances and recordings all-around!
