"...Carmen Alcántara, Spanish harpist completing her Masters with Gabriella dall'Orio at TCM, had two solos, the more spectacular a Fantasie on a Haydn tune by Grandjany. No other instrument is as enjoyable to watch being played as the harp, which, I guess, is why so many young women take it up...
Finally, Ravel's Introduction & Allegro without the chamber ensemble!
Never before heard this way, it proved entirely viable and in this account with David Knotts imperturbably supplying all the instruments from Ravel's own two-piano version, truly satisfying !..."
