Orlos, Clarines y otros Nazardos – CD Loreto Aramendi

Loreto Aramendi hat ein glückliches Händchen bei der Repertoireauswahl und zwei glückliche bzw. erfolgreiche Hände bei der Interpretation ihres breitgefächerten Doppelprogramms. Schaut man sich das genauer an und hört genau hin, dann ist der Sinn erkennbar: Die Werkauswahl zeigt die beiden Instrumente mit ihren vielseitigen klanglichen und spieltechnischen Möglichkeiten, was weit über die authentische Darstellung der üblichen spanischen Verdächtigen (Cabézon, Correa de Arauxo u. a.) hinausgeht. Das ist ein wohltuender Blick über kulturelle Grenzen hinaus mit einem Fokus auf das, was musikalisch verbindet und sich angemessen und natürlich umsetzen lässt.

__Crítica de Johannes Ring en Die Organ journal del mes de diciembre 2020.

What a delight this is! I’ll get on to the performances in a moment, but I have never seen so sumptuous a CD package.[…] outstandingly engaging performer […] I just cannot put into words the glory of the sound […] performances are always superlatively musical, and dramatic. […] recording techniques are exemplary […] the total production value is excellent. This is, to my mind, a must have!

__ Review by David Dewar en Choir & Organ – December 2020.

Bet won by Loreto Aramendi, an excellent musician who knows how to convince us with a precise and fluid game, in harmony with the climates of the various works. It makes us listen to many cleverly dosed mixes of sounds.
These ancient instruments reveal unsuspected resources under the expert fingers of Loreto Aramendi.
An album to discover with greed and that, listened to with headphones, will not leave you unscathed!

__ Review by en ResMusica – May 2020.

[…] the 20th century German repertoire (Distler) sounds excellent under the hands of Aramendi. […] virulent and imaginative organ performance, […] Spectacular effect […]
Versatility is at the same time the attractive part of this production, which shows that the Spanish organs not only have to play Spanish music.
