Internationally renowned guitarist Lex Vandyke turns his attention to Latin American Music with this collection of well-known melodies. Playing favorites from the 'Great Latin Songbook' from "Besame Mucho", "Amor, Amor, Amor", "Perfidia", "Malgueña" and "La Comparsa" to the tunes of bossa nova era including "Manham de Carnaval", "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Wave", Lex Vandyke endows each with the special blend of musicality and tenderness that makes his recordings so irresistible to listeners around the globe.
The album is entitled "Concierto de Aranjuez" after one of the masterworks of the Spanish composer Joaquin Rodrigo. The "Concierto de Aranjuez", a mature and astonishingly well-balanced composition, explored new fields of harmony and rhythm and opened up vistas in the use of the orchestra and the solo instrument. In the "Concierto de Aranjuez", the guitar, in spite of its distant sound, never becomes submerged in the orchestra, but asserts its individuality and even dialogues with it.
