KOSTAS TOSIDIS
Kostas Tosidis, guitar
Greek guitarist Kostas Tosidis has released this intense collection of sonatas under the title “Unreal City” released by Contrastes Records.
This album is filled with fantastic repertoire. All the works are Sonatas with the Ginastera, Hurwitz, Ourkouzounov being written for guitar and the rest being arrangements by Tosidis and Fisk. With the exception of the Ginastera these are recording premieres of the works on guitar.
The big quote: This is a great recording filled with fantastic works and premiere arrangements. With fearless virtuosity and top quality repertoire, Kostas Tosidis has recorded one of the most daring and exciting albums of the year.” – Bradford Werner, thisisclassicalguitar.com
