One of the great masters of Spanish Baroque guitar, Boccherini charms with pastoral grace and dashing flair. The originality of Lutosawski’s Partita gains an extra intimacy with semi-improvised elements, as a floating texture and lyrical arcs contrast with dark driving energetic forces. Grainger’s arrangement of Gershwin’s opera is a powerful fantasia, and then innocence makes a comeback with a youthful piano quintet, packed with inexhaustible spontaneity from its bold opening to joyful finish.
