I have heard piano performances by exceptional pianists that weren't this cleanly played. Brava

Jesus! She es really good. I love her sound. I normally set this playlits to run freely while I work, and this one was one of those that really call your attention because of its sound, its technique and specially because of how it makes you feel.

Beautifully played with love and feeling. You are lucky to play a Santos Hernandez. I was also lucky to play one made by him in Madrid 1933. It was a flamenco with wooden tuning pegs. It was a light as a feather and the most powerful guitar I have ever played. I was only very young (15) when I played it and only decades later came to learn what I had really played. A wonderful master luthier. You did him justice!!! Thank you. Pete.

Call me a profan, because there were many great Masters playing this, but I agree with a lot of comments here - this is the best Leyenda interpretation I have heard! Played passionately and with sensitivity, beautiful touch. In general I am not particularly fond of tremolo, which can sometimes sound forceful and unsubtle, but this time I listened with real pleasure.

On the first listen, I gave this interpretation a "Bravo!" and a standing ovation. The only other artist I have done this for is Grisha Goryachev's interpretation of "Almoraima". ¡Excelente Jiji!

Cleanest i've heard, but I personally don't enjoy her phrasing as much as most other performances. In parts it is better than most, in parts it is worse than most, and to me the inconsistency of that is the only problem I can find. And before anyone jumps down my throat for pointing out a flaw from my perspective, bear in mind this is the ONLY flaw. It wouldn't make much sense/would be extremely time consuming to list everything I like. I think the fact this is all I can find to critique says as much about this performance as can be.
