5 out of 5 stars Cosmic Zen.......2003-10-25

"What are you playing?" she asked. "It's driving me insane" as we drove down Ocean Blvd in my 1969 convertible Mustang. "It's Margaret Lang Tan playing Somei Satoh" I replied as I hit the eject button on the CD player saving the music for myself later on...Do you want to hear something different? Profound? Cosmic? er...Zen? This is the CD for you but be careful who you play it with. Somei Satoh has several hard to find CD's all in a modern multi-cultural (East meets West) minimal Classical music with tape loops & sound effects. Highlights are: "The Heavenly Spheres Are Illuminated By Lights" sounds like the western theory of Universal Big Bang meets Zen Buddhism with prepared piano in tape loops birthing the human voice. "Birds In Warped Time II" again with prepared piano in tape loops setting free Jonathan Living Seagull expressed as a violin. If you like this CD, check out other Margaret Lang Tan or Somei Satoh CD's.

5 out of 5 stars Fine Cuban Piano Sampler.......2005-09-04

This is a fine recording of some Cuban piano pieces by a relatively unknown Cuban pianist. It compares well to the Nohema Fernandez and Juana Zayas recordings, as well as with the authoritative Thomas Tirino renditions, while demonstrating a unique approach. Recommended.

5 out of 5 stars An awesome performer.......2002-03-27

This album touched my heart. The artist has a true understanding of cuban music and style. I have never heard Cervantes's Serenata Cubana played so elegantly, beautiful tone and phrasing. His Lecuona is full of rhythm and big tone. In the style of the great masters.
This album is a must, I recommend it to anyone.

5 out of 5 stars Latin Classicism.......2002-03-19

An excellent series of performances thoughtfully complied on this CD. Definitely worth the time to listen.

1 out of 5 stars Wonderful Saumell and Cervantes-Horrific Lecuona.......2000-07-28

This CD presents a Cuban pianist playing Cuban music. One would assume deep understanding of styles, and conception. However, such is not the case 100% unfortunately with all the music here. Spengler plays beautiful Saumell, nice Cervantes (though not as good as some other Cuban pianists). The Lecuona however I must say, is some of the WORST playing committed to disk of these pieces. I am embarrased as a Cuban, that one of our own should not understand Lecuona's music, style, and forms better.

Still the Saumell is really wonderful. Buy the disk for this music. However, Listen to Nohema Fernandez or Frank Fernandez Play Cervantes in their recordings for peerless interpretations of these works, who are also Cuban pianists.

For Lecuona, once again-there is no competition in my opinion-get Tirino's complete series on the BIS label (who started the revival of Lecuona's music these days) and also get Lecuona's own recordings as a point of reference.
