This time last year I was in Spain investigating locations to film High Five Spanish. This trip took me to Málaga, Ronda, Nerja, Almuñécar, Granada and Alicante. We decided to film the series in Nerja and Frigiliana and, five trips later, the Spanish footage is complete. There’s still a big edit job to do before launching next spring. During my recce trip, exactly one year ago this morning, I was discovering the Alhambra for the first time on a perfect autumn morning.

It seemed appropriate therefore today to play Recuerdos de la Alhambra, the beautiful piece for guitar by Francisco Tárrega. It’s not really meant for piano, so I’ve tried to come up with an orchestration that works. I hope you enjoy this today!
