" To anyone considering booking Jaime Soria for a recital let me say: ' Do so
Jaime just gave one of the best classical guitar recitals we have had in years - that includes artists like Cobo and Niedt - Not only is he virtuosic, but his tone is poetic, his dinamics varied and his interpretations impeccable.
His choice of repertoire was also inventive, works by Kellner and Ritter in addition to Sor and Ponce.
In short, I would highly recommend him for any concerts. His is one of the few recitals recorder here that I will add to my listening collection. "
