Description:

The latest album in 2017 by Xavier de Mestre, the highly accomplished "nobleman of the harp," Xavier de Mestre began playing the harp at a local music school in Toulon, where he won first prize and two interpretation awards at the renowned USA International Harp Competition (Bloomington) in 1998. In the same year, he was appointed solo harpist of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, the world's most prestigious orchestra, a position that everyone desires. He later resigned his position as principal harpist of the Vienna Philharmonic and traveled the world as an innovator who revolutionized the concept of the harp as an instrument. Mestre's latest recordings include a comprehensive selection of solo pieces from the Spanish region that expand the possibilities of the harp, both technical and romantic, with a focus on works such as Falla's "Spanish Dances No. 1" and Talega's "Memories of the Alhambra," which have established themselves as encore pieces and have been long awaited for a CD release. This is a collection of solo pieces from the Spanish region that expand the possibilities of the harp. Sony Music Inc.
