Asturias is a celebration of classical and world music, blending the delicate artistry of Pedro Ibañez's guitar with the monumental sound of the Red Army Choir. Each piece is an emotional journey, from the haunting melodies of Jeux Interdits and the fiery passion of Asturias to the exotic allure of Shéhérazade.
