ALBUM REVIEW:
"Classical
guitar blends with Latin percussion for a distinct, unique collection of lovely
tunes by talented guitarist Lorena Garay in LA GUITARRA DE PUERTO RICO.
While
there are instrumental demonstrations of various styles here, from the rumba
flamenca/samba-influenced 'Boricuas Extranjeros' to the cumbia 'Cholito',
Garay's talents lay in her ability to produce a melodic, subdued listening
experience throughout.
Yes,
the variety of styles in Puerto Rico are represented well here, from these mediums
to son and danza - but the clear classic guitar flawlessly represents the
Spanish themes underlying them in LA GUITARRA DE PUERTO RICO, making Lorena
Garay's cd special and outstanding not just for Latin collections, but for any
classical guitar library holding." - World Discoveries (Latin Issue, October 2004)
