Hit: 5 Stars
This music was recorded by Bream for two different RCA LP albums. The first one was 1971's JULIAN BREAM PLAYS VILLA LOBOS with the Five Preludes, the Schottish-Choro (omitted here) and the Concerto with the LSO under Previn. It was one of the more appealing and outstanding recordings ever made of classic guitar. Bream's touch was warm and intimate and the sound was more tactile and varied in timbre than any other recording of guitar I have ever heard. The 1978 recording of the Twelve Etudes was also masterful; the influence of his duet partner, John Williams, was evident in his strong playing. That LP also included the "Suite Populaire Brasilienne", omitted here.
This is a good collection. No one has ever played Villa-Lobos better than this.
BTW: The photo of Bream on the insert is from the 1978 album. While it's great, of course, to picture the artist, it's also a shame that RCA didn't go with the brilliant and exotic, Rousseau-like painting which graced the first LP's jacket - a close-up of a lush green tropical setting wherein a hummingbird hovers over a broad leaf shaped like a guitar. It was a perfect representation of the spirit of this music by a man who said of himself, "I AM the jungle".
