  • The Concierto de Aranjuez is a composition for classical guitar and orchestra by the Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo. Written in 1939, it is probably Rodrigo's best-known work, and its success established his reputation as one of the most significant Spanish composers of the twentieth century.
    This video is from Julian Bream's wonderful movie called "A Musical Journey through Spain"

    This entire DVD has inspired me so deeply for the past 2 or 3 years. I've seen clips from various people posting them and I finally bought the thing a few months ago. This part is my absolute favourite and I think bream does a really good job as an orchestral performer. I heard a saying once that the artist must submit his/her ego to the better cause of the band[orchestra] and Bream does that so well without sacrificing his own stamp of originality.

    Well said. Stunning is the word. Bream turns his guitar into a harp for some passages in the climax. You have to see him do it to believe it is his guitar. Well, this piece is said to have been Segovia's favorite, so it's not surprising to find Bream pouring his soul into it also.

    The first time I heard this concert was in 1974. Bream was the soloist (he was quite young at the time) and the orchestra, as far as I can remember, was the Symphonic of Chicago under Fritz Reiner. I was really thrilled. It was the first time I heard about the concert and Julian Bream. Until today I prefer his interpretation to that of any other guitar player, including John Williams (a great master of the guitar, no doubts about that.)

    I think it's played a little fast, at least at the beginning where it seems to rush a bit. A slightly slower, more lilting tempo seems to suit it so much more. I love Julian Bream big time, but I really love the tempo of Paco De Lucia or Pepe Romero's version. All wonderful really, just my personal feeling.

    I think Julian Bream played the climax triple notes "correctly" at 1:49 . I believe the triplet are the same timing of each 1/6 notes. A different guitarist Wictoria exaggerated the first note and slurred played the triplet as 1/4 note followed by 2 1/8 notes. She did that wrong multiple times in multiple performances. The climax triple notes is like Beethoven's destiny symphony's 4 notes knocking on the door. Rodrigo fine tuned the melody of Aranjuez, and it has been said that the more you want to exaggerate the melody, the weaker it gets. Julian Bream played it easy and the melody comes out strong and hard on me.

    En mi opinión de estar escuchando con detenimiento un 80% Segovia, Bream y Williams y después todos los demás, puedo decir que Bream es el mejor intérprete de la guitarra clásica del Siglo XX. (Claro las bases interpretativas están con el gran Segovia.) Sin embargo, esta versión del Concierto de Aranjuez no le da el toque español correcto. Él es un intérprete perfecto de la música española, pero a este Concierto le faltó ese toque. Más bien parece como si estuviera tocando Britten, Walton o algo más contemporáneo. La interpretación de Williams es superior. (Lástima que Segovia se rehusara a tocarlo :( ) La de Pepe Romero es genial. Creo es la mejor versión en youtube. La de Paco de Lucía le da un toque más flamenco, muy diferente y original. Sin embargo, aún así me quedo con la de Williams. Es mi sentir.

    • @CatalogueVillalobos
      @CatalogueVillalobos Рік тому

      Yo creo que nadie le da el toque tan exacto e idiomático que le da Narciso Yepes.
      Es más, creo que no hay mejor intérprete de Rodrigo que él, lo cual queda demostrado para mí en su disco dedicado a solos de guitarra de Rodrigo.
      Coincido en que Bream es el más grande intérprete del siglo XX y hasta ahora, del XXI...

    comparing Yepes to Bream is like comparing chalk to cheese! I have tried to appreciate Yepes's work but i find it bordering on the amateurish. Also to suggest that Bream is part of "The Segovia Circle" what is this? Is it some dark guitar conspiracy? Bream really had very little to do with Segovia. The fact is that Yepes has fallen out of favor because he simply lacks the virtuosity needed to capture the hearts of a more educated and discerning classical listenership.

    • @u7007317
      @u7007317 3 роки тому +1

      I've always found Yepes to be a strange mixture. People often rave about his performance of Recuerdos de la Alhambra. Much as I admire the technical control he exercised on his tremolo in that piece, I never thought it sounded particularly attractive. His tremolo was so fast and tight that he gave the notes no room to breath - it was as if he was playing a washboard. He was undoubtedly a virtuoso, capable of pulling off amazing technical feats. But he would so often follow them up with some very clunky playing of relatively easy passages. For all that, I do listen to his old recordings occasionally.

      I tend to agree in this particular performance. He usually played the climax a lot better than he did here. It also sounds like the conductor had difficulty timing off it. When Bream made this recording, he was still recovering from the broken right arm he sustained in a road accident just a few months earlier.
