John Williams returns to the Gothic Palace to play one of the most celebrated virtuoso compositions for guitar: Asturias from Suite Española by Albeniz, a musical impression of the region on the northern coast of Spain. The Halls of Carlos V, as they are known today, were first remodeled in the thirteenth century and have had a connection with all Spanish monarchs to the present time. The royal family maintains the tradition by retaining a suite of private apartments in the Alcazar for use during their visits to Seville.
Did you know that world-famous guitarist John Williams and filmmaker Christopher Nupen studied classical guitar together and that Andrés Segovia was their teacher? Discover more in this documentary by Christopher Nupen about his colleague and friend on @allegrofilms : • John Williams at Ronni...

It's not perfection.. The right hand is poorly played. It is the wrist that must move. Pianists have recognized a good adaptation to the guitar because of the wrist technique. Here, this technique is absent. Which is a major fault in this theme.

Albeniz's original is for piano solo. It's challenging, but manageable with two hands. I agree with you in that John Williams was born to play this on the guitar however. The phrasing, the variety of colours, the technical perfection are unmatched! And it's one of the recordings I remember from my earliest childhood. Made an impact then, remains as impactful as ever decades later.
