Michel Cardin is one of the finest players I've ever heard, and I
heard most everyone. He is one of the only players, I've heard that can
properly embellish a repeat. And he does it constantly well. His
enthusiasm for Weiss and the Baroque lute are inspiring.
Cardin has managed his way out " bag " of the London MS quite well. No
easy feat ! while most guys are trying He done it. His dedication and
artistry are second to none.
It's easy for people to tear down a barn, try building one.
With all due respect to Edwardo Egez, and believe me hats off to
anyone who can play the baroque as well as he can. A little too much
reverb, and please Quit playing Bach on the lute! And speed up those
tempos a little. Beautiful CDs though.
I 've never heard Ariel, or Edin.
