Hola Wilhem! It's really great that You play Guastavino, I love his music, especially canziones and it's a pity that it's not so popular yet(in Europe)...but for sure it's gonna be! Danzas argentinas are classic:) favourite argentinian piece I've played:) I saw Your cd in Warsaw and I'm gonna buy it to find out Your interpretation...Bisous de l'Universitat de Chopin en Varsovie:) P.S. You're the second toy pianist I know (Yann Tiersen was the first one;)it's a great idea...
