"Another piece that moves a listener brilliantly also is my favorite  the concerto de aranjuez by rodrigo... not the same period but very effective.."

Chrisr ...

One of my favorites also. I have probably as least 20 different version of it. If you have a turntable, this is the best in my collection. Its stunning:

For the CD player, I'd recommend this one:

The CD is recorded at a low level so crank it up. 

For something different and very beautiful, try this Isabelle Moretti harp rendition of the Concierto di Aranjuez.  Also recorded at a very low level ... so crank this one up too.
