Excerpt from the Europa Konzert 2011

Berliner Philharmoniker
Sir Simon Rattle, conductor
Cañizares, guitar


Joaquín Rodrigo, Concierto de Aranjuez
II. Adagio


For 20 years the Berliner Philharmoniker have marked their founding in 1882 with a concert -- every year at a venue of cultural importance in a different European city. This year's Europa Konzert takes place at the beautiful Teatro Real Madrid in Spain.

The Berliner Philharmoniker and their musical director Sir Simon Rattle welcome famous flamenco guitarist Cañizares. His virtuosity, his technique, harmony, strength and sensitivity have distinguished Cañizares as a unique artist, considered as one of the great flamenco musicians of the turn of the century.
