Ausiàs Parejo releases tribute album to Manuel de Falla

Guitarist Ausiàs Parejo has released a new album for Contrastes Records as part of a tribute to Manuel de Falla on the 150th anniversary of the composer's birth. The project includes Falla's 'Homenaje a Debussy' and a new transcription of 'El amor brujo'.

Parejo, who previously received a Latin Grammy nomination for his work 'Brouwer, Erena & Others: Guitar Works' on the Naxos label, described the transcription of 'El amor brujo' as a significant technical challenge. He aims to push the instrument to its maximum possibilities. Parejo is scheduled to perform at the XVII Seville Guitar Festival on October 21.
