This is the first new recording by the brilliant Hiroshi Kogure, who was called a “late-learning genius” by Shinichi Fukuda, since his return to Japan. The program includes an elaborate selection of French guitar repertoire from the French Baroque to Impressionism, modern and contemporary, and even a 17th-century work by de Vizier performed on the theorbo. This is a remarkable recording in which Kogure, who has become even more accomplished after completing his studies in France, offers a rich variety of sounds and stylistic transitions.
