Awesome guitar work January 12, 2007 eddy g (ewing,nj) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Parkening sets the standard for others to compare to. Enjoyable tribute to Segovia. The type of guitar mastery that one can relax to after a hard days work. Enough said.
Have been loving this for over ten years!! September 26, 2003 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this cassette over ten years ago (1992) when I started taking classical guitar lessons. Would listen to it on the way home from work, then had a baby nine years ago and have used it for lullaby music (works like a charm) for afternoon naps and nighttime. Still listen to it in the car when the kids fight and they mellow out instantly. Finally buying it on CD because I think I wore a spot out on the cassette! I have listened to this masterpiece at least a thousand times and have never, ever tired of this most excellent work of art. If you are a classical guitar fan, you will absolutely adore every single note played on this album/CD. I promise!! :)
sonic rapture... June 3, 2003 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
If anyone knows of a better sonically intoxicating cd than this please let me know. Possibly only Julian Bream's unreal 1982 Granados and Albeniz cd would top this one for me. Anyway just thought I would pass this thought along to anyone who may visit here. The tone is absolutely magical on this cd. This is the cd to listen to at night to chill out and get mellow while being enchanted to the max. Peace. I must go on... the tone, the tone. My god the tone.
Not just a tribute July 31, 2001 Juan Pablo Pira (Guatemala, Guatemala Guatemala) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Parkening shows how much he learned from Segovia. I have many of these pieces played by the Master. Parkening plays with a similar timbre, simlar dynamics and with a musicality just as deep as Segovia's. IF you like classical guitar you should own this one.
Wonderful, relaxing music January 27, 2001 rodboomboom (Dearborn, Michigan United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This cd will spend much time on my player. It is so lively, yet comforting music to listen to.Parkening provides wonderful tribute to Segovia with Spanish compositions especially loved by the master, even some of them performed on one his Segovia's guitars. For the classical guitar enthusiast, or just someone looking for that refreshing guitar music we here on the FM, this is a fine selection.
