For Guitar and Orchestra-The first time I heard Angel Romero's guitar playing I was mesmerized not only by his impeccable technique but also by the passionhe has invested in every single note. That is why I wrote for him my first guitar concerto a few years back which he recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. But that that was not enough for me. Now I have decided to offer him a second concerto in order to continue our musical journey together. This will be not only our tribute to our long friendship but also an invitation to music lovers all over to join us. -Lalo Schifrin
