Music reviews of Lily Afshar - Hemispheres
Music Review: Jaw Dropping
Rating: 5 Stars
Good gracious, Dr. Afshar is simply astonishing. Her playing is technically impeccible, her interpretations are inspiring, and her selection of repertoire is innovative and enjoyable. True to form, Dr. Afshar has broadened the guitar's capabilities by having new music written for it but also by altering the guitar itself. She's added frets to get quarter tones needed for Turkish and world music! Leave it to Afshar to think of something no one else has thought of and to bring the guitar to a whole new level. The album has new works no one has ever heard before (some written for her) and it also has works by known composers like Brouwer and Morel. Many thanks to Afshar for doing something new and taking the Classical Guitar World by storm.
