Customer Reviews Excellent Classical Guitarist Her technique is flawless and with precision. She is an excellent classical guitarist, no doubt about it. This CD is excellent, every song on it is just superb. Style arguable, but still quite good Indeed, the 16 pieces she's chosen include guitar "musts" such as Albéniz's Asturias, a few less digestible but valuable pieces like Villa-Lobos Étude n. Xue Fei Yang's playing is technically flawless and her program should please any guitar lover. 7 and Sagreras' El Colibri, and, among them, a cherished popular jewel like Lennon's and McCartney's Michelle . On interpretation, however, I think she could use some advice. The CD's title piece, Romance de Amor, is a case in point. Banalized as it has been over the last three or four decades, I must say I still love it ; I just don't understand why some guitarrists try to make it more "romantic" than it already is. Yang goes rather far in this direction. With Villa-Lobos' Étude number 7 she does the opposite , playing it a lot faster than usual. And then, La Cumparsita - a tango classic . My quarrel is simply that she should have meant her arrangement and playing as a "variation" on Mattos Rodriguez's original, not as the "real thing" . As it is, it really fails to evoke what I for one understand to be the tango "soul". . Various music styles played with guitar Selection of songs, some classical and some popular pieces, is very interesting. This is one of the best recordings I've ever had. This CD must be listened from the beginning till the end and you will enjoy every single moment in it. The young artist with all her talents has a great potential for successful career. .
