Ataulfo Argenta - Espana! - Speakers Corner LP

180 Gram Vinyl, Speakers Corner Audiophile Reissue

Sonically one of the best records ever produced by Decca (recorded 1956–57), this legendary program of Spanish music sweeps the listener off their feet. The London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Ataúlfo Argenta, plays with rare vitality, animation, and precision. Interestingly, most of the music was written by non-Spanish composers — a carefully assembled medley that caused a stir even in its day.
