"Liat Cohen here sets out to 'tell the wonderful love story that binds together France and Spain' ... What's interesting is how much on this generous recital isn't actually associated with the guitar ... A pair of popular zarzuela duets, roussingly sung by Charels Castronovo and Rolando Villazónn ... [In] Falla's Canciones populares ... Castronovo does a lovely job. His baritonal tone has the quality of luxuriously soft, mahogany-coloured leather, and he's sensitive to the music's various folkloric nuances ... Cohen is a sensitive and colourful partner throughout but I have mixed feelings about her playing in the solo pieces".
