Album lore
The 2008 soundtrack to Woody Allen’s film *Vicky Cristina Barcelona*, released on Telarc, assembles a clutch of Spanish guitar and flamenco instrumentals that evoke the sun-drenched streets and restless moods of the Catalonian capital. Its eleven tracks, including “Big Brother,” trace a lineage through gypsy jazz and acoustic traditions, with pieces like “Entre dos Aguas” and “Granada” showcasing deft fingerpicking and rhythmic nuance. Vocals appear sparingly, notably on “When I Was A Boy” and “Your Shining Eyes,” featuring Leo Hipaucha and Graci Pedro, adding a subtle human texture to the primarily instrumental corpus.The collection’s resonance lies in its unadorned fidelity to flamenco’s expressive range, sidestepping excess to capture the immediacy of guitar strings and percussive footwork. As a soundtrack, it functions less as background ambiance and more as a signal of place and character, drawing from a canon of Spanish musical forms that have long informed guitarists and crate-diggers alike. For those attuned to the genre’s instrumental voices, this release offers a carefully curated artifact of 21st-century Spanish guitar on film.
