‘Xavier Díaz-Latorre’

The work of composers from Spain's Golden Age is seldom brought into the spotlight, but Barcelona-born Xavier Díaz-Latorre is setting the record straight. The music of Luys de Narváez, Santiago de Murcia and Francisco Guerau, among others, is finely crafted and extremely delicate, but of an almost unsurpassed beauty. Let yourself be spellbound by Díaz-Latorre, because both on guitar and on vilhuela - a stringed instrument in a figure-of-eight shape that was extremely popular for half a century during the Renaissance - the musician is unrivalled.
