Ran into
Rodrigo's 'Concierto de Aranjuez' was on the radio at the Lit Café the other day which made me think ... how difficult it is (not the bit that everybody hears and everybody's covered) and that I used to play it. Was playing around with the piece yesterday and can remember and play quite a bit of it but some bits do seem to have become impossible or almost -but then they always were fiendishly difficult, particularly the third movement. Would have to spend months working on it but then, what chance playing that thing properly, with orchestra. Time and energy probably better spend on other things...
