5.0 out of 5 stars An important work..., September 13, 2000

Who knows what makes a person say a work is bad? Perhaps lack of understanding? Maybe it was a lack of patience in understanding such a well thought out work. I could moan about the overplayed nature of other works in our body of guitar lit, but I'd rather just say that this CD is an example of a fine player performing substantial works. Know Dyens? You need to know the works of Kleynjans to appreciate the influence.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fine and sensitive player, February 6, 2008

This review is from: Plays 20th Century Music (Audio CD)

Although not well known outside guitar circles, Roberto Aussel is a real musician's musician, specialising in the 20th century repertory, with outstanding interpretive ability and a very beautiful tonal range.

The pieces on the album are mostly very accessible to all (although it must be said that Ginastera's Sonata isn't for everybody).

Amazon's track listing is pretty skimpy, so here it is in full:

1-2) A l'aube du dernier jour [Kleynjans]
3-4) Sonatina meridional [Ponce]
5-9) Cavatina [Tansman]
10) En los trigales [Rodrigo]
11) Fandango [Rodrigo]
12-14) Sonata [Ginastera]

The total time is 54'26".
