A couple of my favorite reviews:
From China, "When the lute player strikes his string he injures the perfect
music."
Debussy after attending a performance of a "Pastoral" Symphony, "The
conducting was so precise I could smell the manure."
Debussy once described the music of Grieg as "pink bon bons filled with
snow."

Subject: [LUTE] review
I've had favourable and unfavourable reviews over the years, but this
one is in a category of its own:
"There is a choking quality of nocturnal obscuration in this instrument
which suits you and this hopefully-painfully numbly depressive
declamation of exquisite emptiness.
The wood in the sound engulfs the throat and presses the forehead in a
clutching gentility to highlight your very focused phrasing."
???So, you liked it???
Anyone else have reviews they would like to share?
Rob
