  Fiesta!

  Elbio Barilari presents concert music from Latin America, Spain and Portugal

  Five programmes

  (1) Sketches of Spain

  Sometimes its difficult to tell where Spanish music stops and Latin American music starts. Many of the Latin American songs and rhythms are a continuation, or a consequence, of folk or sacred Spanish music. In the same manner, some of the most popular Spanish melodies, such as Granada and Malagueña have been written by Latin American composers (WFMT)
