Summary
"A visual and musical hymn of praise to what Andrés Segovia describes as 'the pride, strength, and reverence of the Spanish soul.' That soul is exhibited through the remarkable music of Spanish composers: Isaac Albéniz, Manuel de Falla, Enrique Granados, and Federico Moreno Torroba; and a gifted group of painters El Greco, Goya, and Velásquez. Madrid's El Prado Museum serves as the backdrop for musical performances by pianist Alicia de Larrocha, soprano Victoria de los Angeles, and guitarist Andrés Segovia who also doubles as our host on a tour of this famous building. Also seen is Spain's native art form, flamenco, as sung by Roque Montoya and danced by Coros y Danzas de España"--Container.
