Inspired by the gardens of the Royal Palace of Aranjuez, the concerto combines Spanish folk influences, graceful melodies and vivid orchestral colour with the distinctive sound of the classical guitar. Its famous second movement, Adagio, is particularly renowned for its hauntingly beautiful melody and expressive guitar writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe collection also features Fantasía para un Gentilhombre, composed in 1954 for the celebrated guitarist Andrés Segovia.
