Album Description
This recording presents a selection of some of the least and the best known exponents of twentieth century Latin-American guitar repertoire, among them the internationally renowned Argentinian composer Máximo Diego Pujol, whose Elegy for the death of a tanguero is an elegant homage to his compatriot, the father of the classical tango, Astor Piazzolla. Leo Brouwer is found in unusually lyrical mood and two of Piazzolla's most popular songs are heard in an arrangement by Colombian-born guitarist Ricardo Cobo.Customer Reviews:
Perfection.......2006-02-05
Sensuous and poetic playing with amazing technique.......2004-08-17
An eclectic collection of guitar music, wonderfully played!.......2004-07-07
The pieces by Manuel Pujol are particularly moving (his work in homage to Piazzolla is alone worth the price of the CD!), as are the two works by the little known composer, Dilermando Reis. Also worth mentioning is Leo Brouwer's piece 'Un Dia de Noviembre,' a beautiful modal ballad (in the natural minor 'Aeolian' mode) that sounds almost like 'new age music' but that is more interesting and subtle. I don't particularly care for the two pieces by Astor Piazzolla (the 1st and last tracks on the CD), as I don't think they fit well with the rest of the CD's music, but overall this CD has enough beautiful guitar music to warrant many listenings. Some of the slower pieces are reminiscent of the music of the brilliant Paraguayan guitarist/composer Agustin Barrios, whose music was neglected for too long but is now getting serious attention (I would recommend David Russell's recording of Barrios' music for solo guitar -- simply beautiful).
And with Naxos' extremely low prices, you really can't go wrong with Cobo's CD!

David. I own all the albums of David Russell. Although this one is not the best,it definitely deserve the prize, price and praize from guitar lovers from all over the world.
Thoughtful, Sensitive, and Skillful.......2005-08-08
I had been performing 5 of the tracks on this album when it came out, so I can attest to the difficulty of many of these pieces, especially all three movements of the Morel "Sonatina." I can also say that his performances of these is very true; I could hear no incorrect notes , with the exception of some added notes in the first movement of "Sonatina," which I have since adopted myself for my own performance. His expressive interpretation is likewise impeccable on these tracks.
This record would be a great purchase for anyone interested in classical guitar, whether they are just getting into the genre or already have a large collection, or anyone interested in Latin American art music.

Album Description
Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951), creator of the "twelve-tone" musical system, wrote just twelve choral works beginning with the still-tonal Friede auf Erden ("Peace on Earth"). The best are gathered on this unique and much-needed CD. The Südfunk-Chor Stuttgart, founded in 1946, emphasizes the choral music of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Rupert Huber was born in Austria in 1953. He obtained his education as a conductor and composer at the Mozarteum Salzburg. He worked as an assistant to Leopold Hager and later on with Herbert von Karajan.

Customer Reviews:
Tenor-lovers Alert!.......2001-02-25
Mr. Simoneau's recording are few and this one is particularly fine in its aria selection and the singing is simply above reproach.
This is a lyric tenor voice in the style of Schipa. Should you have doubts, listen closely to the aria "Una furtiva lagrima" from Donizetti's opera L'elisir d'amore. The pitch is perfect, the line is firm and the voice is beautiful in it tonal quality. The duet from Faust is sung lovingly and phrased to perfecton by this husband and wife vocal team, a feast of simple lyric beauty.
There are no fillers on this disc. Every duet and aria is a winner and I should perhaps note that since Mr. Simoneau's French diction is flawless, the arias from operas by Mehul and Halevy are particularly welcome. As a footnote, I should like to add that if you are able, find a copy of Simoneau's recording of the "Sanctus" from the Berlioz Requiem with Munch and the Boston Symphony. It makes all recorded competition sound amateurish.

Customer Reviews:
An intriguing disc of varied choral works.......2004-01-12
The Three Satires, from 1925, are examples of Schoenberg's rather forced sense of humour. Tonal oder Atonal uses a note row that starts with a triad (Tonal) and then quickly subverts the tonal feeling so generated (oder Atonal), while Der neue Klassizismus (with added accompaniment of viola, cello and piano) is a nine-minute cantata whose words attempt (rather unsuccessfully) to poke fun at "Little Modernsky" (ie: Stravinsky): its music is, fortunately, considerably more worthwhile than its words.
The Four Pieces, written the same year, are, for the most part, austere yet expressive. The lusher last piece adds mandolin, clarinet, violin and cello to the ensemble. The Six Pieces for Male Voices, completed in 1930, strike me as probably the finest work on the disc, expressive, wide-ranging works written with immense contrapuntal skill.
The Three Folk Songs, a late--1948--work swings the disc back towards tonality. These settings elaborate the simple, tonal melodies with the composer's naturally gifted contrapuntal writing. Also tonal--if only just--is the 1907 work Friede auf Erden. From just after the First Chamber Symphony, this work pushes at the edges of late-Romantic chromaticism in a rather heatedly emotional call for peace. The disc ends with Schoenberg's last completed works: two of the three Modern Psalms (the composer died before the third was finished). I find them rather dry, though not without interest.
Pierre Boulez's rival recording is marginally more complete, and occasionally the performances there are more distinguished (though Rupert Hubert and the Südfunk-Chor Stuttgart are fine performers on this disc, and are well versed in the language). However, with Boulez's recording spilling onto a second disc and costing four times as much, the present disc is a fairly safe recommendation (though it's a pity that Arte Nova's rather skimpy documentation excludes the words).
an interesting experiment in vocal compositions.......2000-11-01
