Turina, Casablancas, Ravel, Falla [Performance On 3]

From the Barbican, London, Suzy Klein presents the conclusion of this Spanish-themed programme of music. Including Manuel de Falla's so-called 'gypsy revel' El amor brujo, featuring the seductive artistry of Flamenco singer Ginesa Ortega. Plus Ravel's Rapsodie espagnole, in which the part-Basque composer evokes the effervescent, seductive spirit of Spain.
