SIRIUS XM (Best of 2017) ClevelandClassical.com (Best of 2017) WBUR Classical Radio – Boston (Best of 2017) “[Yolanda Kondonassis’] performance abounds with affectionate detail, particularly in the third-movement cadenza, which she plays with a keen sense of dramatic timing and a range of colour that’s breathtaking. The orchestra of the Oberlin Conservatory under Raphael Jiménez provide solid support.” – GRAMOPHONE “The album is a masterpiece. Kondonassis’s playing in the concerto is rhythmically exact, yet passionate. It is mesmerizing... The Shahams are two of the most inspiring performers of our day, and their performance on this album simply adds another feather to what must be an already heavily-plumed cap... Jason Vieaux’s playing captures the ear with equal parts charisma and wistfulness. Like the other soloists, Vieaux is at the top of his field, and he ties the album’s performances together with uncanny skill... A wonderful overview of Ginastera’s music.” – CLEVELANDCLASSICAL.COM Amazon: http://bit.ly/Ginastera100Amazon iTunes: http://bit.ly/Gina100iTunes Apple Music: http://bit.ly/Ginastera100AppleMusic Spotify: http://bit.ly/Ginastera100Spotify
