About
Without any doubt this is one of the greatest recordings ever produced by Glossa, as well as being the only recorded occasion in which the two co-founding brothers of the label – guitarist José Miguel and violinist Emilio Moreno – have taken part together. In the hands of these fabulous specialists, who are accompanied by a tiple treble guitar and castanets in the famous Fandango, two of Boccherini’s guitar quintets sound here with an unparalleled intensity and brightness.

Early Music Review December 2014
I always enjoy listening to Moreno’s recordings, and this is no exception.
