About Antonio Lysy At The Broad - Music From Argentina

Product Description This music champions the rich soul of Argentina, and cellist Antonio Lysy makes excellent use of his heritage in this recording. These works highlight the cello as a solo instrument and illustrate the impact of pre-Hispanic Amerindian traditions and Spanish based Creole influences as well as the effect of more modern musical developments like the tango on Argentine composers including Lalo Schifrin's Pampas for which this album won a 2010 Latin GRAMMY. In the age of compressed digital downloads, it is refreshing to hear real sound and real music again, reminiscent of RCA Living Stereo in its golden age, or Mercury Records at its height. Yarlung's sound is liquid and transparent, just as if you were sitting in the concert halls with superb acoustics, where these recordings are made. --Mori Shima, Stereo Sound, Japan Review "...this is music making of the highest caliber to go along with analog recording quality of the highest caliber. How often does that happen? ... If this recording doesn't move you emotionally you are brain dead. If you don't agree that this is one of the finest recordings you have ever heard, your system needs to go in for repairs. "I've played this record repeatedly over the past few days and I can't get enough. When it's over you'll sit in stunned silence, I guaranty!" --Michael Fremer, musicangle.com "Antonio Lysy at the Broad: Music from Argentina is pretty close to irresistible musical. …Try one … you'll hear the sound quality right away, I'm sure. Even before your brain starts analyzing the soundstage, bass and treble extension, dynamics macro and micro, etc., you'll know you like it." --George Witterschein, The Audiophile Voice "I LIKE IT A LOT. It's definitely dirty enough, especially as it gets into the tough tango section. It's a beautiful interpretation. I'm grateful that you include it in the CD along with music from composers I admire so much!" --Osvaldo Golijov
