“Guitarist Rene Izquierdo and soprano Michelle Areyzaga delighted and surprised the audience in their performance, part of the Tucson Desert Song Festival presented by the Tucson Guitar Society, featured with a program of French and Spanish music. Ms. Areyzaga’s voice was mesmerizing as the duo performed Villa-Lobos’ ‘Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5’. Mr. Izquierdo’s fingers seemed to float over the strings in his solo guitar pieces creating the most pleasing music.”
