Under the delicate accompaniment of the excellent guitarist Ursu Gabor, Orosz Zoltan presents his 2nd recording - pure entertainment, with popular numbers such as "O Sole Mio", "Jalousie - Tango", "Czardas" etc. Zoltan's first recording was reviewed on February 14th, 2003.

Characterized by confidence, clarity, technical freedom and sensitivity, Zoltan's style is sharp and a bit 'firmer' than your usual performance of these well known pieces, but it did not lessen his performing appeal. On the contrary, I enjoyed hearing something slightly different but with good taste and convincing.

Once again the combination with the guitar is a total winner! Partly because Gabor is so obviously a very good guitarist himself, I am sure that also greatly contributed to the success of this recording.

Sit back and enjoy this classy entertainment. I love what they are doing! *****
