Alicia de Larrocha was one of the outstanding pianists of the past half century.

She excelled in the music of Mozart, and her playing of Spanish music for the piano was peerless. Her recordings of the piano suites of Isaac Albeniz and Enrique Granados have been enthusiastically praised by critics.

On this week’s Classics of the Phonograph, Saturday at 11 am on WILL-FM 90.9, we will hear some of her more memorable recordings.
