ALHAMBRA
REVIEWS
“The concert by ALHAMBRA was by far the most exciting event
in this year’s series.”
El Espectador,
Bogotá, Colombia
“An enthusiastic capacity audience
welcomed ALHAMBRA
for the second of their concerts in the Purcell Room. The variety of moods was
remarkable and the improvisations generated a sense of exotic excitement.”
Jewish Chronicle,
London, England
“ALHAMBRA’s
performance at the 850 Aniversario de Maimonides festival was more than
a complete success; it was a show of musical quality not seen here very often.”
Clave de Sol,
Córdoba, Spain
“Sunday’s audience was most moved by a
skilled and animated presentation of the music of the Sephardic Jews by
ALHAMBRA, including some fascinating melodic ornamentation, both vocal and
instrumental.”
The Star,
San Juan, Puerto Rico
“The music was filled with vivid energy.
Miss Ganz’ singing was graceful, clear-voiced and
focused, and her smooth handling of melisma was an
instructive lesson in the roots of later Spanish style.”
The New York Times
THE ART OF JUDEO-SPANISH SONG (Alhambra: Global Village
Music): “A superb album, both in music and performance; there’s nothing quite
like it. This whole album is like a book you can’t put down.”
