It's one CD and with the current dollar rate perhaps a bit steep. However, the recording is superb. I also strongly recommend the 'Style brise' with french music. I got from David some months ago a CD by stephen stubbs which contains many pieces also played by Toyohikoh. Very interesting to compare. One performed in a very 'french' style with lots of smart graces and very 'free', the other played more strict in tempo, almost german style..., but still an interesting interpretation. Just buy two or three, you will not regret it and not every lutenist has 'Naxos' connections...
