The Baroque Album

Immaculate nylon-string interpretations of Bach and Scarlatti. A masterclass in technical precision and dry, intimate recording that feels like a private recital.

1988 · Sony Classical

A disciplined and intellectually stimulating serenity that values structural beauty over overt sentimentality.

Moments Worth Listening For

The hypnotic, circular interlocking patterns of Les Barricades mystérieuses translated from harpsichord to guitar.

The sudden, sharp clarity of the L. 485 Sonata's bright melodic leaps.
