The Grand TourHelen Fraser, 22nd January
Last night’s concert programme read like the travelling itinerary of a young English aristocrat embarking on the fashionable “Grand Tour” of Europe. The concert began in Spain with Rodrigo’s Fantasia para un gentilhombre, a piece as imbued with the flavours of Spanish folk music as his more famous Concierto de Aranjuéz, also for guitar and orchestra.
