 Beuatiful music August 14, 2008
Four masterful guitar players doing Vivaldi. I get lost in the beauty of the music every time I listen to it. How do they create such art? And at a great price.
 Great, but... October 10, 2006
As always a very lively set of performaces. The only problem is that in the Concerto in C RV425 the Largo is measures 1 thur 5 then skips a whole musical idea and goes straight to measure 15... not an example for any one to follow, and if you are trying to play along for fun it throughs you the frist few times... then the Alllegro there is some shorting of it also. Fun to listen too! great to Play along with, use your ears, not always the music.

An exuberant celebration of Vivaldi October 31, 2002
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
Los Romeros (Angel, Celedonio, Celin and Pepe) have collaborated with the San Antonio Symphony Orchestra to produce a true Vivaldi sound. These are Concertos, not solo pieces. The Romeros are assisted by John Corigliano on the Violin, Dominick Saltarelli on the Viola and Margaret Bella on the Cello. The admixture is pure Vivaldi from the Allegro of the Concerto in D to the Largo of the Concerto in B minor. The guitar parts are perfect for the resultant polyphony. Transitions are smooth. The guitars are sensitive and evocative. Timing is precise - the orchestra comes in and out flawlessly. The guitar accompanents flow freely and precisely. TURN YOUR BASS UP AND YOUR TONE DOWN to appreciate this album. Especially fascinating are the guitar duets by the Romeros in the Concerto in G. The guitar is delicate and sensitive in the Andante. The guitar leads the orchestra and not the other way around. The Concerto in C is probably most familiar to Vivaldi fans. The orchestra and Los Romeros display great dynamic range and force of rhythm. Vivaldi would have been proud to hear these results as a tribute. This is the height of virtuosity, delicacy and mastery of the guitar. Especially in combination and collaboration with a great orchestra.
Technically very precise, didn't care for the arangement October 2, 2002

I thought every single piece was played too fast- the result was that each piece sounded rushed. I purchased the CD priamrily for Concerto in D major, but it also sounded rushed, not soothing and relaxing like other versions.Overall, very good
