Wonderful harmony in the symbiosis of Scarlatti & this outstanding Guitar Duo. Thank you for such peace, david!

my vinyl original bought in 1971,tho fresh out of the sleeve had a couple skips and pops in the orientale and one other spot,I smoothes these out aith discwasher fluid and a pointy toothpick which O ran along the groove,,this did the trick

Melancólica y arrebatadoramente dinámica, dos sonatas. La inmensa expresividad de la guitarra y un folklore lleno de belleza. Gracias David!

Another fantastic Nonesuch record ! they really were the top at the time ! and even now they continue to propose un-listened-to pieces and composers. Love this one anyway. But then you always manage to find us unsuspected treasures David !

[@davidhertzberg]

Thank you as always for your generous comments! david

P.S. I've been searching for another Nonesuch record, if you happen to come across it some time : Gerard Schwarz ‎- 'A Festival Of Trumpets' (Baroque) with The New York Trumpet Ensemble, Nonesuch Records ‎- H-71301 Vinyl, released:in the US in 1974. Who knows ? some day you may come across it ? Kind regards, and keep us hanging on in expectation ! (I see there's a new Chopin recording on site....Thanks)

[@davidhertzberg]

I know it well. I even know where I might be able to get a copy.

[@cathievermote7602]

That would really be fantastic as I've been searching for the past 3 years without success !
