The eleven Soler sonatas move from the intimacy of "cante" to the fire of flamenco, capturing the color and drama of Spain. Beautiful playing and a superb recording put the listener right on the bench beside the performer.

"This is probably the finest recording of selected sonatas of Soler that I have heard; indeed, I find it even more satisfying than the fine performances on a modern piano by the esteemed Alicia de Larrocha." - Victor Hill, "The Diapason"
