5 out of 5 stars A superb guitar disc played by a master.......2001-03-18

From the first notes, you will be seduced by the heartful, sensuously elegant playing of Barrueco. It's easy to tell that he has lived with this music for a long time. Each piece adds a new dimension to your experience of 20th century Latin American guitar music. One Barrios piece ravishingly spotlights the local folkloric traditions while another resonates with the inspiration of Bach. A Ponce selection enchants us deeply as any Chopin scherzo. The Piazzolla duets with flute invigorate our appreciation of the tango. In CANTOS Y DANZAS, Barrueco has given us a wonderful gift.

3 out of 5 stars Manuel Barrueco and Leo Brower.......2000-12-20

Tecnicamente Barrueco es impecable pero me decepciona la interpretacion de "Danza del Altiplano" y "Danza Paraguaya". Creo que hay mejores interpretes de Barrios y Brower que el. Carlevaro por ejemplo interpreta Brower mucho mejor que Barrueco en mi opinion. Sin emargo el Preludio de "La Catedral" (De Barrios,curiosamente) sencillamente lo borda. Es magnifico de la manera que lo hace. Quizas habria que preguntarle porque las dos anteriores piezas las entiende de esa forma...

5 out of 5 stars Maravilloso!.......2000-04-17

Barrueco, if you are not familiar with him, is undoubtedly one of the masters of the classical guitar. True to form, this CD wholly supports his reputation: his interpretations are very tasty and his technical mastery shine in this recording.

I really enjoyed his selection of pieces which involve solo guitar, duet with voice, and duet with flute.

If you don't have it, get it!

5 out of 5 stars Increible ejecucion............1999-02-28

La ejecucion de Barrueco es increible. Los amantes de la guitarra clasica ( y popular ) no quedan decepcionados. Manuel Barrueco es un gran guitarrista.

A friend told me about this music which she had been searching for since hearing it on the radio. It took us months to find a copy but it has been worth it. The blending of Andean music and Norwegian lyrics is perfect. Find out for yourself!

5 out of 5 stars absolutly beautiful!.......2003-04-05

i heard this at a record store by chance and it caught my ear
immediatly. the combination of norweigan choral and andian music
is astounding. the melodies are very charming in this mass. the recording is first class. this is a cd to die for. it is also very rare here in the states. your best bet is to order online.

5 out of 5 stars More DeGrassi Magic.......2003-08-05

I really like this album. It's a creative mix of new age, jazz/rock fusion, world music (complete with dueling Indian percussionists), and folk guitar tunes. Unlike his earlier works, DeGrassi's compositions here aren't built so much around the guitar. Several of the pieces feature other instruments and actually seem to use the guitar more for accompaniment.

My favorite cut is McCormick, a solo alternate tuning piece with a heavy chorus effect that employs a contrapuntal approach to composition. The final piece - "MTY" - is reminiscent of Shadowfax and even uses their original violinist Jami Szmadzinski. Produced in 1987, this album was an obvious attempt by DeGrassi to explore the possibilities of acoustic guitar composition and arrangement. If you ask me, the exploration yielded very positive results.

5 out of 5 stars On David Burgess............2005-02-20

I bought this CD directly from the artist himself after hearing him perform several of the pieces live. David Burgess is guitarist of extraordinary talent and broad interest. This CD contains beautiful pieces from both South America and Spain that are intricately performed with great depth of emotion. I would recommend this disc for any true music lover.

5 out of 5 stars Waiting for Another Great CD.......2003-05-20

Wherever you are, David Burgess, don't get exhaust yourself concertizing. Get back in the studio and record another excellent CD! Your talent is much too good to let slip away in the ephemeral wind; crystallize it on CD for everyone to hear long after your fine concerts are memories. Yeah, I guess I'm begging you to lay down more brilliant recordings. It can be Latin American, Spanish, Brazilian--anything. Just do it! ...

5 out of 5 stars great variety, a true virtuoso.......2002-01-29

David Burgess is one of those artists that is a total gem to find. He doesn't have a "big name" or a huge recording contract, but when it comes down to what matters (namely playing well) he can totally deliver the goods. Not only is he technically amazing (I've seen him in concert and he honestly didn't hit a single bad note), he plays with an incredible amount of soul. You can tell both on record and live, that he breathes this music and that it truly means the world to him.

Not only is the album a varied (yet consistent and thematic) but he employs a wide range of techniques to achieve his amazing sound: "Samba do Aviao" is breathtaking in terms of speed and beauty, the rhytmic oddities and brilliant use of percussive effects in "Berimbau" is unreal, "La Catedral" is sublime and almost played at a whisper, yet he breathes new life into familiar favorites like Isaac Albeniz's "Leyenda." This is one of the most creative albums of any genre that I've heard, but it is by far the best guitar album I own (and one of the best I've ever heard.) Another thing that makes this album so great is how rare some of this material is, some of these are complete gems and not at all in the standard repertoire.

And if you have the chance...GO SEE HIM IN CONCERT...its even better than the superb album.

4 out of 5 stars Silver (and Gold) Nuggets.......2001-11-20

I bought this CD at one of Burgess' concerts (in Virginia). He plays with much strength, variety of technique, and tonal quality; moreover, he has excellent command of the rhythm required for this mainly Latin American collection. My favorites are the hypnotically delightful "Seis por Derecho" and "La Misionera," which has a driving and catchy rhythm. I find almost every other piece enjoyable except for the over-recorded "Leyenda" and the somewhat ponderous piece by Rodrigo (whom I'm still a big fan of, nonetheless). It would be nice if those two were replaced by a few of the other interesting Brazilian pieces I heard at the concert. Fortunately, I was told that Burgess might put out more Brazilian recordings later in 2002. I'm very much looking forward to hearing them.
