New record: Ahora Aquí
Review of the CD in OPUS by David Härenstam: "With an almost crazy curiosity have I waited for this record from Agnas, is is a combination of instruments seeming impossible to sound well together with the tone-weak classical guitar and a pointy trumpet. All my fears were nullified already in the first part, composed by Sabina herself. Almost like a statement she opens with a long silence, some background noise and week, week guitar-flagolets. I guess one must thank the sound technician får much of this, because in fact, the soft sordined trumpet makes the perfect partner to the finely tuned and so beutifully played guitar.
It does not sound like an ordinary classical record but rather like a mixture of tunes which "happen" to contain composers like Ravel, de Falla and Eric Satie. The duo really have such an own sound that you are not disturbed when they suddenly play Lennon/McCartney´s Blackbird or when Konrad Agnas comes along with percussion in swinging Ausencia composed by Salvador Valenzuela. All is beautiful, easy and wonderful, the surprice of the year!"
