Russian born guitarist, now based in the Netherlands, Irina Kurikova plays plays Sonatina by Spanish composer Federico Moreno Torroba (1891-1982) at the “Altamira Night” concert in Shanghai Oriental Art Center. This is via Altamira Guitars and their YouTube. Super crisp and rhythmic performance! With plenty of sweet moments and great phrasing contrasted by sharp twists. Brilliant. In 2014, Kulikova’s 4th solo CD was released by Naxos, Reminiscences of Russia. You can check some of her albums: Irina Kulikova on Amazon.
