"What one notices immediately is the wonderfully relaxed sound build-up, and the uncannily lively and flexible treatment of tempi is so natural and organic, as if it had grown from the instinct of a jazz man..." (M. Lohr, Akustik Gitarre, 04/2001) "Those with a penchant for classical guitar should get it immediately." (Bernd Lorcher, InMusic, 6/01) The range of this cd stretches from the "Ciaccona" by J.S. Bach (originally a work for violin) to 19th-century pieces and complex contemporary compositions. And Ingo Schneider more than lives up to the technical and interpretative demands of this multifaceted selection. His performance is both animated as well as majestic, he conjures humorous coloraturas from his strings only to dwell in broad, long sonorous tableaux at the next moment. Titles are: 'Walking on the Water', 'Ciaccona', 'Vals', 'Alborada', 'Capricho Arabe', 'La Mariposa', 'Reverie', 'Koyunbaba', 'Tango en skai'. |
