Tierra (CD)

Classical guitar star Andrew Blanch presents his fourth studio album, with music spanning centuries and continents: from the Italian Baroque to Romantic-era Spain and 20th-century Latin America, plus the world premiere recording of a passionate and vibrant guitar concerto by the Chilean-born Australian composer Daniel Rojas. Andrew Blanch’s virtuosity and artistry touch every track on the album with gold, whether delighting in the intimacy and intricacy of Vivaldi, drinking in Albéniz’s vivid musical impressions of sun-drenched Andalusia, or swaying to the rhythms of Mexico, Venezuela, Uruguay and Brazil.
