Joaquín Rodrigo’s fragrant Concierto de Aranjuez forms the centerpiece of this escapist, joyously unseasonable program, set off by flamboyant riffs from Manuel de Falla, Brazilian dances from the barber’s son Mozart Camargo Guarnieri of São Paulo (brother of Rossine [sic] and Verdi), and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov’s Technicolor Capriccio on Spanish Themes. —M.G.
