Description:

[Panorama Series: Semi-New Pressings / Encore Pressings] "Panorama" is a series for beginners of classical music that compiles masterpieces of classical music by composer in two-disc sets using Deutsche Grammophon and Decca sound sources. With the exception of a few operas and other works, there are no fade-outs or movement excerpts, and the series is based on the recording of all the movements of a single work. The performances are all masterpieces that can be recommended with confidence. This is an encore pressing of 40 selected titles. The album of Spanish composer Rodrigo, who passed away in 1999 at the age of 97, includes seven works for guitar, including concertos for flute and harp. Yepez, who performs four of his best-known works, including the "Concerto de Aranjuez" and "Fantasy for a Gentleman," was a fellow countryman of the composer. The Romero Guitar Quartet's "Andalusian Concerto" is on the Philips original recording.
