5.0 out of 5 stars A master class from a virtuoso, August 26, 2005

This review is from: Un Momento En El Sonido (Audio CD)

This 2005 release was my 1st and belated musical encounter with Vicente Amigo. What comes to mind is what Segovia proclaimed of Williams, "a prince of the [flamenco] guitar has arrived [where Paco de Lucía has reigned]." Amigo's music in this CD is electrifying, complex, and sublimely lyrical, while his guitar technique defies human limits--a smorgasbord of new falsetas, rich counterbeats, picado, alzapúa... Flawless rasgueados in crescendo suddenly awaken you like you just had a double shot of espresso, only to find yourself soothed by hypnotizing arpeggios in the next few measures. There is an interesting fusion of sounds at times--drums in Track 1, and bandoneón in several others. You will need to be in an occasional contemplative mood to appreciate Track 9. Track 5 and especially its bonus version Track 10 can be used to unwind while you sip down on Tempranillo.

this beauty-full flamenco guitar CD marks the return of Vicente Amigo to a simpler & more satisfying production of his incredible talent as one of Flamenco's premier guitarists... the feel of his playing on this disc is makes it some of the best acoustic guitar music you'll ever hear & all thru the recording the listener is consistently treated to the same flowing musical stream of inspired & inviting flamenco virtuosity... this is without a doubt my favorite recording of his playing that often stays in my CD player for hours at a time... Ole Amigo !!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Vicente Amigo - Un momento en el sonido, April 21, 2008

I admire Vicente Amigo a lot since I heard him playing about four years ago. Although he is not already as big as Paco de Lucía, I think he will be soon.

I prefer slow "toques" in flamenco and cut #3 (Mezquita-soleá) is really beautiful. It includes major ends when ending the main theme then turning to minor which make this soleá really special.

Cut #4 (Tangos del arco bajo-tangos) is also beautiful. Including the bandoneón in some cuts like "Un momento en e sonido" (taranta) is also very interesting. Combination of his guitar, percussion and bandoneón is colorful and they complement very well each other.
