Notes and Editorial Reviews

Esteves combines the Roman ideal of his training and the musical colours of his Portuguese roots to create a new baroque aesthetic. To recreate these masterworks, ranging from the audacity of the first youth to full maturity, Graham O'Reilly uses both performing traditions to produce a unique colour of great emotional power. A live recording from Ambronay with France Musique. Esteves combines the Roman ideal of his training and the musical colours of his Portuguese roots to create a new baroque aesthetic.
