Guitar and harp is an exquisite combination that whispers its secrets only in the most intimate and transparent acoustic. Small suites by Enrique Granados and Máximo Diego Pujol bookend this concert, which also includes works by Fauré, Ravel and Koehne, and the premiere of a new work for the duo by Elena Kats-Chernin.
