“In the same way that Wynton Marsalis represents Jazz in the U.S., Lavandera represents classical music in Argentina”. Keith Widyolar, New York Latin Culture Magazine.

“Lavandera offered a stupendous demonstration of rhythmic strength and subtlety, and play of color across the surface and through the depth of the music.” Richard Dyer, Boston Globe.

“His intelligence shines through everything he touches here.” Colin Clarke, FANFARE MAGAZINE February 1, 2016.

Award-winning pianist Horacio Lavandera presents a program including work for piano by Dino Saluzzi and classic masterpieces by Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, and Gershwin. American critic Ted Gioia (New York Times, Los Angeles Times) included Mr. Lavandera’s ECM recording with music by Dino Saluzzi in the Top 20 Best Albums of the Year for 2015. The album was recorded in Oslo by the German producer Manfred Eicher.
