Pure, pristine, inspired performance!

"If only we wrote as eloquently as Ms. Isbin performs! From the very first note, the listener's mesmerized by the strength and honesty of her virtuoso guitar. No need for embellishment here: she performs each classical piece faithfully -- and brilliantly -- from the heart!"
This CD's a Keeper!

"Whether you're already a Sharon Isbin fan, or haven't yet heard her play, if you don't own this CD you are missing an essential piece of your collection. Road to the Sun is one of the CDs most often in my player, and it makes a great accompaniment to Journey to the Amazon, another Isbin favorite."
Fiery, then mellow, in a nice mixture...

"This is an impressive performance. Since I am neither a guitarist nor a scholar of the classics, I can't tell you how skilled she is compared to others like Segovia, Liona Boyd, John Williams, Chris Parkening, etc. I can't tell you whether these selections have been done better, either. All I can say is that she has produced a CD which is a joy to hear, and holds up under repeated play. A couple of years ago I bought the "Amazon Journey" CD of hers, but I was disappointed in it...too bland for me. This one is better."
