Piquant and charming

The Grandes Sonates Op. 22 and 25 are probably heard less frequently than many of Sor’s smaller-scale works, but they deserve to be heard. Anyone not charmed by the second movement (allegro non troppo) is a harder person than I.

Holzman does a terrific job with these–his phrasing and articulation are wonderful. This disc has the typical Naxos dry acoustic, and the miking is pretty close. I think this works well here, even on a modern guitar.

This is a thoroughly enjoyable recording.
