5.0 out of 5 stars
Great composition,

This review is from: First Concerto for Guitar & Orchestra (Audio CD)
I got this recording on vinyl from my local record store just because I'd heard of Almeida and played a couple of his transcriptions before. I put it on and I love it! The first concerto is beautiful, charming, playful and a joy to listen to. I'm not AS huge a fan of the B-side but I still listen to it and enjoy it. The first guitar concerto, though. It's the perfect size for guitar and the guitar is never pushed beyond its limits of volume or technicality. I recommend this to any fan of classical guitar music.

Derivative, but a good listen,
By Michael C. Leugs (Grand Rapids, MI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: First Concerto for Guitar & Orchestra (Audio CD)
I bought this album strictly based on a referral to the artist. While I expected something completely different, I enjoy what I got. This is straight classical music, and I wouldn't characterize it as completely original; some of the themes sound very familiar. Yet, it's a good listen, good for relaxing or working to it.
