Title: A glass of wine, the moon, and Mompou
Review: Mompou's Songs and Dances contain some of the most delicately melodic music in classical music. It's meditative music, never as imposing as Chopin, with a tremendous sincerity. The music moves between lilting dances, delicate melodies, and meditative passages. Rather like a combination of Poulenc and Chopin.Maso's performance captures the dance like quality and the deeper moods. He's also more distant than some of the more famous pianists, such as Hough and de Larrocha, giving the music its meditative feel. Music for late night listening with a glass of red wine and a cigarette under the stars.
