I love Ginastera's Piano Quintet, a wonderful piece of big, exciting chamber music that belongs completely to the 20th century (composed in 1963) but shouldn't scare anyone who enjoys Bartók. This is only the second recording of the piece I have encountered and the first one never was transferred from LP to CD, so this disc is almost automatically worth having. The songs are early and folklike, very flavorful and nicely sung, and if you have great eyesight you can even read the Spanish-English texts in the booklet. A thoroughly wonderful disc and a major contribution to the Ginastera discography. --Leslie Gerber
