Reviews

'The programming of this recital strikes me as well conceived and the playing is thoughtful' (MusicWeb International)» More

'Swiss guitarist Christoph Denoth explores musical homages for the classic guitar. The album includes works by Malats, Rodridgo, Villa-Lobos, de Falla, Turina and Llobet. Recitals of poetic beauty' (The Northern Echo)
The Canción del Emperador (Song of the Emperor) was a piece written in ‘double homage’ to both the emperor and Josquin. Luis de Narváez was the musician at the royal chapel, and Mille regrets by Josquin des Prez was known to be the favourite work of the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V.

Das Canción del Emperador (Das Lied des Kaisers) war ein Stück, das als „doppelte Hommage” an den Kaiser und zugleich Josquin geschrieben wurde: Luis de Narváez war der Musiker der Königlichen Kapelle, und Mille regrets von Josquin des Prez war als das Lieblingswerk des römisch-deutschen Kaisers Karl V. bekannt.
