Author: Geoffrey Norris
The fact that Turina was a skilled orchestrator is manifest throughout this disc in performances of La procesión del rocío and the Danzas gitanas that have a shifting, subtle spectrum of colour delineating the music’s light and shade, its sunshine and louring clouds, its sensuality and sinew. What might come across as irksome motivic tics are woven into a rich, multifaceted fabric, no more so than in the Canto a Sevilla, a work that Victoria de los Angeles made her own. María Espada adds a luminous glow to this homage to Seville in all its mystery and magic, exuberance and eerie phantasms.
