Title: Buena música...excelente don Ruben!!! Review: Nos encontramos aquí con una excelente producción de uno de los más emblemáticos pianistas cubanos de todos los tiempos: Ruben Gonzalez, quien se hiciera conocido por la audiencia actual a través del dvd llamado "Buena Vista Social Club" quien nos presentaba al mundo una serie de luminarias de la música latina olvidada en el tiempo y que de pronto estaban en la admiración de todos. Este sensible pianista nos trae una selección de 12 temas de hermosas melodías, muy románticas la mayoría de ellas y que fue grabada en 1975. Su estilo de tocar nos trae a la memoria a otro gran maestro del piano cubano que es Bebo Valdés.A deleitarse se ha dicho!!! Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Outstanding Obscurity Review: This is one of the so-called post reform Pacini operas (along with Medea & Sapho also available on recordings). The remarkable thing about his post reform operas is the role played by the orchestra. Instead of being backround to the singers the orchestra becomes another voice. Listen to the big bravura duet finale to the first act. It becomes almost a trio with the orchestra becoming a third voice. The outragous, bombastic & altogether wonderful second act finale is one of the greatest in all of opera, not least because of the wonderful part played by the orchestra. I beleive that this new, expanded role for the orchestra that Pacini developed had a profound effect on both Verdi & Wagner. This, and the other post reform Pacini operas are wrongfully neglected masterpieces. Don 't miss them. Is the review positive or negative?
