• 21st Century Spanish Guitar, Volume 4 (Frameworks Records)

  Compact Disc (CD)

  • 
  Adam Levin’s 21st Century Spanish Guitar four-album encyclopedic series culminates with this enlightening recording spanning musical inspirations from Joaquín Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez (Caprichos no. 14) to the Sephardic tradition (Sonata Sefardita) to American bluegrass (Portraits from the Heartland) and enchanting nature preserves (Arboretum). Levin embarked on this 13-year-long commissioning project of more than 30 solo and chamber works in an effort to bridge the gap between old and new world Spain and, in doing so, introducing the new century’s Spanish masters. The solo guitar works are contemporary in style and language, but, nevertheless, span three different generations and identifiable compositional voices: the master, Leonardo Balada (b. 1933); his disciple Jorge Muñiz (b. 1974); and in between, José Luis Turina (b. 1952) and Salvador Brotons (b. 1959). Additionally Levin performs the electrifying concerto – Concierto de la Herradura – by Cuban-Spanish composer Eduardo Morales-Caso (b.1969). All works receive their world premiere recording with this disc.
