Villa -Lobos, I love Him
Dale N. Reynolds | 06/21/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Stravinsky is reported to have said on hearing a piece of music, "Oh, that is bad, it must be Villa-Lobos." Well, he is right. This is not music that Stravinsky would have liked, but it is music that I love. After having grown up with music from the 17th-19th century, I was immediately taken in 1960 when I purchased a 33-rpm recording of a String-Quartet by Villa-Lobos. From that point on, I continued to enjoy most 20th and now 21st century music. These string quartets are among my favorites and I would recommend them to all who enjoy great music."
