Colors of Spain by Daniel Estrem Daniel Estrem : Colors of Spain.
 Colorful classical guitar.

The red and yellow "Colors of Spain" are said to be descriptive of the Spanish personality. Red identifies passion, blood and love while yellow indicates the warm spanish sun. On this recording Daniel Estrem gives a fluid and precise interpretation of spanish classics with the majority of the works by Isaac Albeniz. One can easily conjure up the sights, fragrances and sounds of Spain when hearing this music. It is highly expressive and gorgeously sensuous. Albeniz himself said of his music that "It contains sunlight, warmth and the taste of olives."
