Manen: Violin Concerto No. 1, “Concierto español”, Op. A-7 – I. Allegretto ben moderato

Joan Manén, in his day almost as famous as his fellow Catalan Pau Casals, was an admired virtuoso violinist and a prominent composer. His Concierto español, the first of three violin concertos, is suffused with technical demands, lyric warmth, and rhapsodic nostalgia.
