Seasong as recorded by Andres Bonilla
LAUTEN-INFO 1/20/12 (Deutsche Lautengesellschaft – Joachim Lüdtke) : Much of Isbin’s music is immediately understandable. Some also quite catchy. These are interesting, accessible and thoroughly enjoyable pieces. ‘Flatulent melodies’ never occur – this music has nothing to do with decomposition, but with creation.
LE JOUEUR DU LUTH, December 2008 – Caroline Delume: Gilbert Isbin présente les pièces de ce recueil comme sa contribution accessible et mélodique à la musique d’aujourd’hui, écrite spécifiquement pour luth. La tablature pour luth à six choeurs est bien lisible pour tout connaisseur de la musique renaissance. Les titres disent bien l’atmosphère doucement jazzy de ces Afternoon Shadow, Sunset Song, Seasong etc.
