Rodrigo Joaquin, "Aranjuez”
Fingering: Renato Bellucci
The Adagio is one of the best known guitar melodies ever. Believe it or not and contrary to the tradition at the time, Joaquin Rodrigo did not dedicate the piece to the Andalusian Master guitarist Andres Segovia. Andres Segovia on the other hand, never played the Aranjuez concerto. Still, the work is synonymous with "Guitar Concerto" and this is the most played movement in the guitar world. Here you will find the complete guitar part for the second movement of the Aranjuez Concerto, The "Adagio".
