Review quotes
'A wondrously beautiful CD [. ...] The complexity of the music is perceptible in Ish-Hurwitz’s terrific performance. His playing sounds natural, breathing, dancing and filled with fantasy. The tone is particularly refined and colorful.'
Trouw, January 24, 2009
'As in his Liszt CDs, Ish-Hurwitz is thrilling from the first to last note. He makes a compelling narrative of Albéniz’s musical portrait of Spain. Magnificent phrasing, lovely tone colors, sparkling, fresh touch.'
Dagblad van het Noorden
'... a highly lyrical and poetic reading of this Spanish masterpiece, from which – in part because of the splendid recording – every devotee of fine piano playing will get great pleasure.'
