Vivid orchestral colours and intense melodies abound in this programme from one of Spain's top orchestras.

After the exciting dances by Manuel de Falla, the most famous of all guitar concertos transports its listeners, with rhythmic and fiery outer movements framing a heartfelt slow movement.

Ravel's delicate and touching evocation of six contrasting fairy-tales follows.

Turina's skill and sensitivity in the art of orchestration shines throughout his Sinfonía sevillana, a poetic and colourful tone poem depicting aspects of the city of his birth.

The steadily building crescendo of Bolero guarantees a rousing conclusion to the evening.
