CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com essential recording Subtitled "Guitar Études," this entertaining collection consists entirely of "exercises" ranging from the simple to the most fantastically virtuosic. Like Chopin's "études," however, the term itself does not mean that the music is in any way sterile or academic, and even if it were, Segovia could make it sound like the greatest stuff in the world. His special brand of virtuosity never loses sight of the music's poetry or humanity. Although less well-known than much other Spanish guitar music, this is one of Segovia's very finest recordings. --David Hurwitz Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsEavesdropping on a master Mark Dennison | Perth W.Australia | 06/07/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "If you play the classical guitar you should not be without this disc. It offers great performances of several miniature masterpieces from the repetoire. If you have progressed beyond the absolute beginner stage you will be able to play some of the pieces by Sor and Aguado. Segovia is always sensitive, never pompous, extremely revealing and always at the service of the music. The recording quality varies and sensitive hi-fi's will reproduce the engine noise of fishing boats on one of the tracks. But who cares? This disc is an endless pleasure and immensly instructive.One of the great classical guitar recordings." Manufacturer Mishap Mark Dennison | 03/21/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Excellent recording by the absolute finest virtuoso. One problem: CD lists 37 tracks, however you cannot access them individually. The CD is broken down into 7 tracks and you may have to wait, rather than just go to, the track of your choice. Very annoying." Sublimely Sumptuous Segovia Daniel G. Berk | West Bloomfield, Michigan | 02/02/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Andres Segovia had the capacity to turn the most elemental of teaching pieces into lyrical sonatas. He does that admirably with the compositions collected on this CD. It is not necessary to use a lot of words to describe the beauty of these recordings. One listen to the music is sufficient."
