今天从收音机听到一首吉它协奏曲，是英国现代作曲家Richard Harvey （(ex band member of rock band Gryphon)）1996年为著名吉他演奏家John William 和伦敦交响乐团（London Symphony Orchestra）写的。
这里听到的是该协奏曲的第三乐章，全曲一共５个乐章：
| 1. Concerto Antico For Guitar And Small Orchestra: I. Alborada |
| 2. Concerto Antico For Guitar And Small Orchestra: II. Contredanse |
| 3. Concerto Antico For Guitar And Small Orchestra: III. Cantilena |
| 4. Concerto Antico For Guitar And Small Orchestra: IV. Forlana |
| 5. Concerto Antico For Guitar And Small Orchestra: V. Lavolta |
很奇怪这么美的吉他协奏曲１９９６年就有了， 为什么演奏得并不是那么多呢？在吉他协奏曲听得最多的还是Joaquín Rodrigo的aranjuez concerto, Vivaldi 的Gitar Concerto in D, 对其他我听得少。
Richard Harvey (born 25 September 1953) is a BAFTA award winning British musician and composer. He is best known for his film and television soundtracks.
