Happy birthday, Pepe!

For his 80th birthday, master guitarist Pepe Romero is treating himself and the audience to another extensive European tour. Together with the Orquesta Sinfónica de Castilla y León, Romero fills the Elbphilharmonie with rousing Spanish sounds – above all with the wonderful »Concierto de Aranjuez«. By choosing the guitar – probably the most Spanish of all instruments – Joaquín Rodrigo paid homage to the folk music of his home country in this concert and at the same time dared to experiment: never before had anyone combined the guitar as a solo instrument with an orchestra. The »experiment« became his greatest success. At its premiere in Barcelona in 1940, the composer was already celebrated for his ingenious and cliché-free integration of Spanish folklore.
