Pleasant music beautifully played

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Perfect music for a dinnerparty or settling a toddler for supper. I enjoyed discovering this disc, not having come across many "Guitar Quintets" before. I was sceptical, knowing the famous horrid "Boccherini's Menuet" from youthful Eisteddfod attempts, but the Haydneseque textures and easy tunefulness have a special charm. A classical composer, his work reminds of Haydn more than Mozart and never becomes terribly profound, an atribute I found quite refreshing. Clear the ears and mind with some lighter - never frivolous - transparently textured chamber music, but also check out the NAXOS versions for a cheaper and beautifully performed alternative and get two volumes for the price of this one."
