Description:

Asturias - the famous spanish piece for piano, which I have transcribed for piano and string orchestra. World Premiere! Very difficult for the piano and very easy for the listener. Nice music! Ensemble "Orchestral" Georgi Cherkin - Piano Bedros Papazian - conductor "Bulgaria" Hall, 10 February 2007

Actually, Leyenda, like most of Albeniz' works, was originally scored for piano, despite its fame on the classical guitar. However, as to your comments as to the passion involved in the piece, I cannot agree more.

I have listened to a dozen versions of leyenda on guitar. In spite of the challenge this is a masterpiece that is meant to be played by guitar. Pity that guitarists seem to approach this piece as a challenge, the spirit is so strong. There is - for comparison only - that few versions of Voodoo chile played by Jimi Hendrix that can catch the spirit. But when it does, it brings tears to my eyes. The music is so compelling, that it should not be limited and judged by its technicalities.

Great performance! I loved it with full orchestra! Would love to be able to purchase the arrangement if I might know the publisher. I heard it for the first time at a Barrage Concert as a solo violin piece. Does anyone have info on solo violin arrangement publisher. Thanks
