RUBEN LORENZO
.. an exciting suspense novel! “… the confluence of this Lorenzo, this Steinway, and this nice recital hall gave us this unique revelation.. â€So Douglas McNair qualified in Chamber Music Today Lorenzo Ruben’s performance at Carnegie Hall in New York in December 2007 with the implementation of the renowned Betic Fantasy by Manuel de Falla, whose version of the recorder, in a broad and illustrated article says discovering for the first time microtonalism Falla himself had intentionally sought in the work.

The numerous criticisms that have been always highlighted its elegance, beauty of sound and communication skills in the musical discourse, and the virtuosity in his performance. In the beginning Edward Fauquié wrote of him: “… has been to demonstrate that it is already a great pianist.†“… A pianist of great entity.†And more recently: “… one of the most chilling piano performances and emotive one remembers.†(Luis Alfonso Bes, Heraldo de Aragon) criticism in Germany writes:! A commendable performance for Hats off to the soloist (Katrin Seidel, “Leipziger Volkzeitung†1995) and in France – “the Spanish pianist is imposed as an ambassador of his country’s musical heritage†(J.Lukas, La Terrasse Nov. 2007)With a vast repertoire, played in concert, in recent years has performed numerous recitals based on specific themes. Especially important is to emphasize the premiere in Spain of the integral of the four volumes of “Makroskosmos†of George Crumb, a reference work in the art world of contemporary piano.
