Description:

The Long-Awaited First Recording of One of the Greatest Guitar Works of the 20th Century by Shinichi FukudaThe long-awaited first recording of "20 Variations and Fugues on a Spanish Folia," one of the greatest guitar works of the 20th century, by Shinichi Fukuda. This large-scale work, written at the request of the great master Segovia, is played with rich shading and a profound performance in which each variation has its own distinctive character. In addition, the program, which includes the rarely recorded original works "Asensio: Inner Thoughts" and "Ibert: Arietta," will keep you interested until the very end. Fukuda wrote in the liner notes, "I would like to note that I used a famous instrument made by Ignacio Fleta in 1961 for the recording, aiming for a sound that combines the dryness and sensuality of Spain with delicacy and boldness. he writes in the liner notes.
