Customer Reviews

great for any mood
This is my most favorite CD. I had never heard his music before I saw him play a "living room" concert for the public radio channel in Cincinnati in the fall of '98. Cafe Paradiso was given to the guests and since then it's been my first choice no matter what my mood is. I feel really lucky to have been able to see this amazing muscian play live! I am so moved every time I listen to this CD. So much so that I would love to see if he would play at my wedding.

Cafe Paradiso by Erquiaga
I own hundreds of guitar music tapes and CDs by as many artists. I must say that I was stunned by this arrangement of Presto (JS Bach) and consider it one of the finest performances I have ever heard. This CD is 1 of the best collections of guitar music I have even heard, I would pay $ for the second CD, if Steve were to ever produce another.

A guitar music fan from Vienna, Austria
Indeed an incredible CD - from the transcriptions of classical pieces for guitar as well as for the interpretation of Mr. Erquiaga and also for the quality of the recordings, which bring the guitar right into your living room!
