Free Music Notes for Gabriela Montero plays Chopin, Falla, Ginestera, etc. [Includes Bonus CD]Free Music Review: Little-known piano superstar Hit: 5 StarsGabriela Montero is much more than a first-rate piano "technician." Her style brings out the subtle musical and lyrical qualities of complex classical compositions so that they can be appreciated by all levels of music lovers. You will want to listen to this album over and over.
Free Music Review: A New Favorite in Your Music Library Hit: 4 StarsGabriela Montero's CD Piano Recital will hold a favorite place in your musical recording collection. It has a balanced mix of compositions by major composers and Montero's improvisations. Her phrasing sings and her technique is brillliante. She plays with a felicitous touch; there's no banging on the keys, but she knows where the bottom is and can float delicately across the top, too. The recording engineers may have compressed the dynamic range, somewhat, between pianissimo and fortissimo. IMHO, the repertoire on this CD is far better than the new Bach and Beyond CD.
Free Music Review: Gabriela Montero CDs Hit: 5 StarsExcellent service -- speedy, just as described, well-packaged. I'd definitely buy from this seller again.
Free Music Review: Non-professional Review Hit: 5 StarsOkay, I listen almost exclusively to classical music, but I do so simply for the pleasure and nothing more. I cannot tell you about Gabriela Montero's technique, and, when she improvises, I have no ability to judge the music's intrinsic value, authenticity, or whatever. I can only tell you this: while I own many dozens of albums, running the full spectrum of the classical genre, I value none of them above Montero's Bach and Beyond and her Piano Recital. Pure listening joy!
Free Music Review: Absolutely Magnificent! Hit: 5 StarsI first saw Gabriela Montero on 60 Minutes a few months ago and was taken by her playing ability as well as her ability to improvise on the classics. Ms. Montero's fingers fly over the keyboard, playing Rachmaninoff more dramatically and key-perfect than I've heard in a long time. I decided to purchase this CD and have not been disappointed.
