Most of the time he lowers the strumming of the second movement by an octave, but on this stage he plays the original. This is probably due to Previn's request.

I could hear it a hundred times. It's perfect, the most perfect interpretation. Williams is my hero.

When he played the Fleta guitar, a magnificent instrument.

What an absolute rare gem of an upload. Williams at his interpretive and technical best, a combination that has yet to be equalled. Fantastic orchestra with maestro Previn at the helm. This, and Paco de Lucía's 'definitive', incredibly soulful version rank at the top...subjective yes, but I think reasonable. Thank you so much for uploading this!

Thank you very much for the uploading. Previn and Williams made several recordings. Here, Williams was at his peak of interpretation.

And yet, Previn recorded the concerto with Angel Romero from around the same time. A fine performance as well.

@@brtherjohn a great player also. I prefer the Wiliams execution, though. Because of his marvelous technique he plays the concerto as if it were very easy. He is precise and perfectly executed. My second option is by Pepe Romero, who gives a very spanish feeling. Those are my favourites.

Perfect. Previn is the only conductor who doesn’t do the annoying pause before the orchestra comes in after the crescendo.

So brilliant performed. But Williams is Williams. His Fleta guitar sounds so great. What a guitar and guitarplayer as well.

Yes I heard him many times with the Fleta and the Hernadez y Aguado. Both superb instruments.

Remarkable! Sounded flawless to me. Williams, to me, sounds so much better on the Fleta guitar. He also seemed to use more of the timbres available on the guitar

I heard in a discussion that Angel Romero was considered the king of Aranjuez by other guitarists including J. Williams. Compare the energy and speed between them and you'll see the difference.

Always great to see Andrew Preview in action. I think his greatest performance was with the fabulous maestro Les Dawson.

i find funny that the conductor is Andre Previn, and John Williams at the time looked like Woody Allen ;)

I saw Williams perform this in 1971 at the Sydney Town Hall; what a disappointment. I'm sure he played well but I couldn't hear the guitar at all. He was using a microphone but to little or no effect. I love this performance with that wonderful Ignacio Fleta guitar.
