SINDELFINGEN

"Poetry that reaches one´s heart" ..."As precise as synchronized swimmers, down to the last detail ”

 

COTTBUSER KULTUR

“From the first note, there was an absolute blend and a perfect rapport in each of the concert’s passages... ” “The pieces sounded as if they were played by one set of hands, as if they were from a single mould. Fantastic!”

 

SCHERZO MAGAZINE

INKPOT SINGAPORE

CRONACHE SALERNO

“Carles Lama & Sofia Cabruja are not two pianists playing on one piano; they are only one performer, one head, one sound, one synchronization, one phrasing, one poetry… They have a total mutual understanding, on the rhythm, on the spirit..."

 

EST RÉPUBLICAIN“

A perfectly mixed and balanced sound … all magnificently adjusted… A very well interpreted beautiful piece …” “A dynamic and poetic trajectory that ended in a vortex…” “Far removed from the typical exaggerated Spanish folklore of deep Spain, with heart and soul.”

 

KLASSICAA.COM

“The duo is surprising for their sense of ensemble (two pianists that sound wise seem to be one), their joviality and their deep and up-to-date reading of each work ... The duo’s achievements and versatility are dazzling”

 

CD COMPACT

“Their Schubert is elegant and refined...The waltzes by Brahms present some complexities of expression which Lama and Cabruja resolve with the greatest elegance...Their Brahms possesses a renowned symphonic sound, a majesty evident in the touch...”

 

DIARIO LEVANTE

"This young pair of pianists showed their impeccable interpretive performance... Some of the keys to the great job performed by Lama and Cabruja can be found not only in a mutual sensitivity that borders on perfection, but also in their sharp, precise and refined technique which is expressed in its most pure state. Lama and Cabruja create a splendid melodic and harmonic setting with three of the Slavic dances by the Czech composer Antonin Dvorák.”

 

PUNT DIARI

“Security, unity and pulchritude in the individual execution which is magnified when the two of them are found together... the duet soundly reaffirmed their unbeatable interpretive brilliance.”

 

VERS L´AVENIR“

Carles Lama and Sofia Cabruja complement each other admirably and form a duet of pianists that interpret the repertoire of piano for four hands with infinite elegance and sensitivity. They are very sure of their technique, which makes it possible for them to give themselves totally to the interpretation without worrying about the difficulties of the score... The musicians knew how to give this admirable piece of music, “The Fantasy in F Minor” by Schubert, which causes both tears and smiles, a palpable intensity with moving passages... the two dances by Falla swept the spectators up into a flaming whirlwind... “
