Well, most of this disc is lyrical. It's an intriguing concept for a record: stressing the lyrical side of a century most people think of as dissonant. Richard Rodney Bennett's Impromptus aren't very lyrical, and they were the pieces I liked least (not only for that reason). But Frank Martin's Four Brief Pieces is one of the guitar's masterpieces; Raphaella Smits plays it with a songful attitude despite its dissonances. The disc also contains familiar music by Barrios and Turina along with unfamiliar pieces by Morel and Burkhart, all of them pleasant to memorable. Smits's playing is rhythmically flexible, always sensible, and highly communicative. Very nice! --Leslie Gerber
