5.0 out of 5 stars Classical Guitar
In many respects, the lute is an ancient instrument, of which the classical guitar has in many instances done justice in its replacement. True, if you want strictly lute music then be sure that is what you're getting. This album is expertly mastered baroque music played on the classical guitar, much of which had originally been written and composed for the lute...

2.0 out of 5 stars Baroque Lute Music on the Guitar? NO!!!!!
Being a huge fan of S.L. Weiss, I was given this recording as a present. The work by Weiss is excellent but performed OK and the rest of the CD is pretty dispensible. Weiss wrote only for the lute and his music should only be played on the lute; playing it on the guitar sacrifices the depth and warmth that the lute offers. Please purchase with caution.

The sound quality is superb here and is especially noticeable in the acoustic rendition this fantastic period music.
