4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting mix, December 21, 2008
This review is from: David Russell: Art of the Guitar (Audio CD)
While Russell's recordings usually focus on either one composer (Barrios, Torroba etc), one period (baroque), or one genre (latin american), this one covers a really broad range, much like those 'Guitar Music of Three Centuries" LPs that some of us grew up with. In the case at hand, the music ranges from Sor (d. 1839) to Eduardo Sainz de la Maza (d. 1982). Standouts include Russell's take on the 'Cavatina' from the 1970s flick 'The Deerhunter'; a vibrant take on the 5 pieces from Venezuela by Sojo; and Sainz de la Maza's 'Campanas Del Alba.'

Another great recording from David Russell and Telarc. Just listen Grieg pieces and Galeron by Sojo. No more words needed. Every year a new David Russell CD....... Thank you Telarc.......

Awesome, January 28, 2009
This review is from: David Russell: Art of the Guitar (Audio CD)
I think David Russell is the best classical guitarist out there. His guitar rings and his music sings.
