“It was rare opportunity to hear the gilded voice of baritone José Carbó in an intimate recital of (mostly) art song accompanied on classical guitars by Andrew Blanch and Ariel Nurhadi. The three musicians make up the newly formed José Carbó trio and are undertaking a tour of NSW and Brisbane with the programme L’Heure Exquise(The Exquisite Hour) as well as recording it for release later this year.
A quote often attributed to Chopin comes to mind – “Nothing is more beautiful than a guitar, save perhaps two.” Add to these the voice of Carbó and you have a sound that is quite thrilling.”
