This CD has all of the estudios from Carcassi, Sor and Brouwer which make it an essential disc to own if you are studying the pieces. I personally play the classical guitar to grade 5 standard and love all of the pieces on the CD and I feel that it has been of invaluable help in aiding me to master tracks 1 and 7.
If you play the classical giutar or just like to listen to classical music then this disc is well worth purchasing.

Outstanding Mix From Two Worlds
1 Jan 2001
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
To be honest, the only reason I bought this disc was to hear Renee Fleming. The power and the beauty of her voice is spine-tingling! Dave Grusin agrees, just read the liner notes. How intelligent of Dave Grusin and Lee Ritenour to blend two different genres together to create something beautiful. Critics aside,to try something new with something familier is remarkable.

A pleasant cross-over album for Grusin and Ritenour fans
27 Sep 2000
Format:Audio CD
If you are a fan of Grusin and you like his Orchestral Album, you would also like his new collaboration with Ritenour. The result of their work together is more of a classical album, rather than jazz. The involvement of Renee Fleming adds some weight and charisma as well. Grusin's composition in this album carried the same thread as "Cubra Libre (Se Fue)" in "The Orchestral Album" - smooth and romantic, and "heavy" with instruments.
Upon playing the CD, dim the light, rearrange the order of the songs by putting the lively ones at first and play "Bachiana Brasileira" and "River Songs" back to back, and close with the melancholy "Lagrima" ...

Two Worlds
1 Nov 2000
Format:Audio CD
It wasn't what my husband and I were expecting. We were expecting more of a jazz sound. We were both just blown away by this CD - it is just breath-taking - gives you goose bumps, the whole works. We recommend it to anyone, it is a music lover's CD.
