Notes & Reviews:

The great French guitarist lda Presti is, along with Andres Segovia, one of the few authentic guitar legends of the twentieth century. Established as a child prodigy, she was equipped with a stunning technique Perhaps superior to that of Segovia himself - which was accompanied by an 'impeccable musical taste. Also often performed as a duo with her husband, Alexandre Lagoya, who formed a formidable partnership with the arts. This CD brings together, for the first time, the Recordings made between 1956, testifying to the exceptional level of her musical mastery.
