Classical.net’s Brian Wigman offers a generous review for Smaro Gregoriadou’s latest release Reinventing Guitar, Vol. II:
“Smaro Gregoriadou’s second volume of “Reinventing Guitar” nonetheless delivers on its promise to be something new and different…your idea of classical guitar may indeed change by the end of the program.
“…it’s refreshing to say that Gregoriadou brings something entirely unique to the party….Gregoriadou is incredibly accomplished, musical, and intelligent, I speak for the moment on the unique timbres she draws from her guitars and the utterly fascinating effect this has on the ear…
“…each piece is good as the next, sounding as if it was written just for the guitar. This stands not only as a testament to Smaro Gregoriadou as an interpreter, but also as an arranger…each piece is played with total commitment and impressive virtuosity.
“…I can only applaud the efforts of Smaro Gregoriadou and her quest to reshape the way we look at, and listen to the guitar. Warmly recommended.” — Brian Wigman, Classical.net
