2005 - 2001
Press Notes
Marturet, with absolute control and confronted with the expected difficulties of a fantastic score, Ginastera’s Variaciones Concertantes, conducted the group marvelously leaving plenty of freedom for each and everyone of the soloists. It was a good occasion to prove, once more, the phenomenal ability of Ginastera, but also the conductor’s trustworthy and the many talents of the Philharmonic’s musicians.
