Mauro Giuliani: Le Rossiniane, Op.119, Nos. 1-6

Amazon.com
Giuliani composed several sets of potpourri on themes from Rossini operas, all entitled Le Rossiniane. Aside from listening to them, you can tell them apart only by their opus numbers. These pieces were probably more fun for their original listeners, who could recognize most of the themes, than they are for us. Luis Orlandini puts a lot of musical interest into his playing, and he has such a secure technique that he makes the music sound easy. On the one hand, this is a lot of light guitar music to have at once; on the other, running only 91 minutes, it's not much music for two CDs. --Leslie Gerber

BRAVO MAESTRO!!!!!!!!!.......2006-03-12

Excepcional!!!!!!!!!
En esta grabación el maestro Luis Orlandini revela una extraordinaria musicalidad y espiritu guitarristico a través de una interpretación llena de virtuosismo, energía y sensibilidad. Realmente le da vida y un sentido muy especial a cada una de las seis Rossinianas. Creo que el maestro además tiene una concepción muy particular de la obra en su contexto global, y nos muestra las Rossinianas en su conjunto como una obra maestra. Los que hemos tendio el privilegio de escucharlo en vivo podemos dar fe de ello.
Definitivamente Luis Orlandini es el mejor interprete de esta obra, y posiblemente sea el mejor interprete de Giuliani y de Fernando Sor (los invito a escuchar el CD "Fernando Sor: Fantaisies" que sin duda es la mejor grabaci?n que existe de la obra de Sor).
