Awards and reviews
February 2018
This is a valuable release and very well recorded…[the Mignone] is certainly more enjoyable than any of those by Mignone’s more famous compatriot Villa-Lobos. You can hear in the course of its three movements echoes of Prokofiev, Rachmaninov and Ravel but also of the playful exuberance and rhythmic vitality of South America, My guess is that this cracking performance will tempt many others to take it up.

[Mignone] the demands for both pianist and orchestra are extreme and Clélia Iruzun comes into her vivid own, playing with a superb mastery and empathy. [Albeniz] it is difficult to imagine it played with greater skill and affection. This is a highly enterprising disc, brilliantly balanced and recorded.
