CD Reviews

Excelent performance

Romulo Vega Gonzalez | San Jose, Costa Rica | 04/11/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is one of my favourite lute CD's. I got this more than a decade ago and still enjoy listening to it like the first time. It is an excellent overview of Renaissance lute duets. The players' diction is clear and precise, and they produce this hollow sound which I love in the lute (not dry as many performances today). It is a pity that LAUTTEN COMPAGNEY (Apel and Katschner) does not seem to have recorded more solo CDs. Just one thing-I would have included more pieces by Heckel (his settings of popular songs and grounds are exquisite and should be make known to the public).
