CD Reviews

Masterpiece
Felix Carrion | Las Cruces NM | 08/25/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a masterpiece of a recording by one of the greatest guitarists in the world of the work of Barrios, an unappreciated composer. I recommend this highly for anyone that loves the classical guitar, student or professional. Williams brings great sensitivity to the nuances of these compositions and tremendous skill to these emotionally complex pieces. My only concern is that this is also packaged as "From the jungles of Paraguay" giving the impression that this are two different recording when they are exactly the same. I believe this CD is the original package."
A first-order tribute!
Hiram Gomez Pardo | Valencia, Venezuela | 11/10/2007

"Agustín Barrios "El Indio Mangore" at last received a web deserved homage from one of the most prominent guitarist of the last Century, John Williams whose profound love for every one of these pieces results more than obvious, at the monet you listen the first bar.



As a matter of fact, Williams plays with astonishing Latin taste; which demonstrates his grade of conviction and commitment respect this poet - composer.



To my view (in case I was inquired for the best piece) I would choose " Sueño en la floresta" hovered by a dark poetry of unsuspected lyric flight.



Piece by piece, a masterwork, all the way!

"Some of the greatest classical guitar music ever written and played by the master John Williams. I play the classical guitar and have many CDs of guitar music. This is one of the best."
