Abstract

To further the dissemination of Joaquin Rodrigo's piano works, I offered a unique performance of contrasting works from 1926-1950. This concert is a continued representation of the D.M.A. dissertation, The Piano Works of Joaquin Rodrigo: An Evaluation of Social Influences and Compositional Style.
