Bruno Monteiro and João Paulo Santos deliver a dramatically intense, powerful performance of the Elgar, not shying away from the music’s contentious moments. [...] Monteiro and Santos’s performance (Debussy) is the art of understatement and intimation. [...] This is an amazing accomplishment for Monteiro, technically as well as musically.
Brilliantly-chosen repertoire, exceptionally well played and recorded. ... The playing throughout is full of subtly-nuanced phrasing from both gifted musicians, and this unusual but very worthwhile disc is strongly recommended for those who seek the little-known but worthwhile byways of musical development.
Monteiro is glorious in the long unaccompanied rhapsodic introduction [Tzigane], he really leans into dark gypsy-ish tones, managing to make something almost mysterious and threatening, and the main section has that real folk-ish feel. There is nothing light and airy here, all is dark and heavy. [...] I enjoyed this recital immensely, and it surprised me in that Monteiro and Santos managed to bring either a new range of colour and timbre to the pieces, or played familiar music with such intensity that it ceased to be familiar.
