From Billboard - April 28, 1979: The classical Rodrigo work in the LP title runs almost 10 minutes. Almeida follows it with eight additional cuts, all pops, including a couple of superior medleys. A brilliant virtuoso of the guitar when he came out of Brazil to join Stan Kenton, Almeida's delicate artistry here indicates he is even more skillful 30-plus years later. Best cuts: "Concierto De Aranjuez," "Gershwin Medley" and "The Summer Knows."
