Concierto de Cienfuegos

For four guitars and orchestra

COMMISSIONED BY
THE SOCIETY OF COMPOSERS
OF SPAIN
    1. Noche, lago de mil fantasías (Night, Lake of a Thousand Fantasies) 
      In Bulería rhythm the fairies dance through the side streets of the enchanted Andalusian night. Smiling stars illuminate the sky like an immense lake of a thousand fantasies.
    2. Canto a la noche – Arrullos (Song to the Night – Lullaby) 
      In the placid night one hears a lyric and captivating theme. The ocean and the stars kiss one another, whispering endearments… They fall asleep listening to the cadences of a slow and tropical Habanera rhythm.
    3. Las dos orillas (The Two Shores)
      Cienfuegos does not sleep. The night shines with the exuberance and sensual beauty of the rhythms which emerge from the Caribbean. Bongos and Congas sound passionately until sunrise.
