Concierto de Aranjuez (Harp) - Rodrigo

Winner’s concert of the 2013 Harp Concerto Competition at the Jacob’s School of Music, Indiana University Natalie Lurie Salzman (harpist) plays Joaquin Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez (1941) with the IU Concert Orchestra, conducted by Arthur Fagen. The concerto was originally written for classical guitar and arranged for harp by Rodrigo at the request of harpist Nicanor Zabaleta in 1974. This performance blends both versions, hoping to capture as much authenticity as possible of the original composition.
