Sure his wife was pregnant at the time but you don't know for sure the composition is
related to that. Most of that is rumors spread

If you like
Rodrigo, check out Manuel de Falla stuff, considered by
many the biggest spanish classical composer ever.
I love the story that Rodrigo's famous concerto theme was written whilst
waiting for his wife to give birth. What a buzz!
