PRESS REVIEW:

"The appearance of this record consolidates an intense and fruitful stage that has as its origin the exquisite sensitivity of an exceptional artist of deep Galician essence."

Carmen Pereiras  (La Región)

 

"... a mature product, necessary to overcome the watertight compartments so common in Galician music, as C. del Caño brings together in his art diverse worlds, easily assembled."

Xoán M. Estévez  (A Nosa Terra)
