[@user-qk3sc8rq9r]

I play guitar as a hobby and was compelled to comment. The discipline to play on the level of John Williams is superhuman. He is a treasure and the apex of humanity. The world needs less greed/suffering and more music.

[@janeclarkson8471]

I ABSOLUTELY agree! I’m not musical myself but I listen for hours each week to beautiful music!!! There’s nothing soothes the soul, heals or stirs emotion the way music does. Sometimes you can become excited and want to say to someone “listen to this music, it will make your heart soar!” It’s so evocative in many ways and whatever you love becomes so personal to oneself… 🎶 🎵 ❤️❤️❤️

There is a sad history behind this masterpiece, Maestro Rodrigo lost his newborn daughter and his wife was extremelly sick. Is a song to God, on the one hand, he reproaches him for his daughter being born dead and, on the other, implores him to save his wife. Once this history is known this beautifull adagio is full of sense.

[@lynncibelli3534]

I wish all of mankind would cooperate with love as these musicians do. What a wonderful world this would be.

No, it came from a composer who studied. No heabvens no gods no false credits. Reality.

​@morbidmanmusic actually it's a dialogue with God according to maestro Rodrigo himself.

This is the only piece of music that always brings tears to my eyes. Gracias Don Joaquin.

[@lindajones7219]

John Williams Emulated Joquin Rodrigo ,believing him to be the greatest Guitar and piano player ever to be born . This piece written after Rodrigo,s wife gave birth to his dead son, the strumming if the guitar is the beating heart of the baby . Rodrigo,s loss was for his child and his wife nearly dying too . hence this soul wrenching masterpiece .

[@christinewester1709]

Exquisite, absolutely one of the most beautiful pieces of classical music ever composed. It evokes longing- of lost love, of those dearly departed or of love to come.

[@Joy-mh9xq]

As I understand, he and his wife had a stillborn child. That experience was the inspiration. 🌺

[@qtredhead]

My Mum adored this...it's 5 years ago this Tuesday that she died, and I am sitting here moved to tears by the absolute power and beauty of this. If grief truly were the inspiration, then it fits that perfectly.

[@NSA720]

Very sweet of you Natasha. I'm sure your Mum would be very proud.

[@paullee6663]

+Natasha Weldon I'm sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I lost my Mum 5 years ago in January. It's OK to be moved to tears by things you remember your Mum by. For all that, my Mom liked Elvis Presley, Gene Pitney, Englebert Humperdink, and Roy Orbison :-) I'm happy to say not so long ago we used to lye on the beach in the Caribbean and she'd cry her heart out while listening to Roy Orbison's 'Crying'. Back to this music, I first heard this piece on a 'Young Musicians of the Year' show in the UK way back when....I bought John's album on vinyl on the back of that show back in the '80s.... frankly, to my untrained ear, that young man played it much better, John's left hand made a lot of 'noise' when moving on the fret board (I'm not the first to notice this) If you are tempted to buy the album get the best the critics recommend.I'm sure your Mum would be happy she's in your thoughts. Look after you now...

[@novit5798]

La historia que encierra el Concierto de Aranjuez: En 1933 Joaquín Rodrigo y su esposa, la pianista turca Victoria Kamhi, pasaron su luna de miel en Aranjuez (de ahí el nombre de Concierto de Aranjuez). Un tiempo después se fueron a Alemania. Allí esperaban tener a su primer hijo. El niño nació muerto y su mujer estuvo a punto de morir. En el segundo movimiento Joaquín cuestiona a Dios (orquesta) por el aborto espontáneo que ha tenido su mujer, perdiendo a su hijo y rogando que su mujer se mantuviera viva; esto se expresa mediante el pulso de la guitarra (al comienzo del segundo movimiento), que representa un corazón latiendo. El movimiento tiene pena, rabia y desesperación. Al final, en el clímax de la guitarra y la orquesta (que representa a Dios), Joaquín Rodrigo "oye a Dios" y por fin se produce la rendición y aceptación de los hechos, hasta alcanzar la paz tan anhelada por Joaquín Rodrigo (final del concierto).

[@girlgirl4548]

Gracias, esto no lo sabia, habia aceptado (quizas de manera perezosa) la narativa popular que la obra estaba solamente una expresión del compositor de la ciudad de Aranjuez y de su Palacio de Verano con su Sala de Porcelana (que visitó hace muchos años). Hace quasi medio siglo yá, vi a Narciso Yepes al Royal Albert Hall tocando el Concierto de Aranjuez y jamás lo olvidaré. Para una muy joven mujer, fue una descubierta inesperada de una cultura muy diferente de la mia. "The soul of Spain" was how this young woman perceived it. Lo que ha escrito Vd añade una dimension nueva y otra y tan poderosa en emoción a la obra. Gracias de nuevo.

Hello . I really think all of you should also check out a Philips recording done in 1994 by Pepe Romero with the Academy of St Martin in the fields under Sir Neville Marriner . I say this because of the concise break down including time stamps . Which you can access in the description . This was uploaded onto KZbin on LindoroRossini's YT channel [Feb 1 2011] It's a very beautiful version of which even Joaquin himself praised . Pepe Romero was not finely versed with notes and came from a flamenco back ground and so interpreted it according to rhythm .
