4.0 out of 5 stars A great CD for your collection, September 15, 2002
By 
"renovia" (Portland, ME United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: L.A. Guitar Quartet: Dances from Renaissance to Nutcracker (Audio CD)
If you are a music teacher this CD is a must. If you aren't, it STILL is a must. This CD is full of light but amazing classical guitar. I can hardly wait to pop it in at Christmas. Even if you aren't a huge fan of classical guitar I bet this will amaze you so much you'll want to keep listening. LAGQ flawlessly performs countless dances you'll wonder how they do it. The music classroom can use the Renaissance music for medieval topics and dances. A great CD to have for some high quality back ground music - relaxing music.

4.0 out of 5 stars From Renaissance to Nutcracker is brilliant., November 27, 1999

This review is from: L.A. Guitar Quartet: Dances from Renaissance to Nutcracker (Audio CD)
The Los Angeles Guitar Quartet's Nutcracker Suite is a triumph for guitar arrangement. This selection is an excellent choice for one's holiday listening enjoyment. In the Renaissance dance suites included here, the L.A.G.Q. masterfully utilize a number of the percussive timbres available on the body of the classical guitar to complete the instrumentation and invoke the spirit of the pieces. Though the recording is not as loud as most of the other L.A.G.Q. recordings, the quality of the performances more than makes up for it.

It just doesn't get better than this. If you want to hear Tchaikovsky played by super classical guitarists, this is the CD for you. Its the BEST!
