The Segovia Collection, Vol. 8:  Platero & I And Other Works By Castelnuovo-Tedesco
Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco was one of the many composers who were inspired to create a large body of excellent guitar music by Segovia's artistry. The pieces fromPlatero and Iincluded on this disc come from a sort of SpanishPeter and the Wolfand may be performed separately or with narration. The composer's respect for Segovia is more obviously represented by theTonadilla on the Name of Andrés Segovia, which is, needless to say, very well played by its dedicatee, as are all of the pieces on this enjoyable disc.--David Hurwitz
