It is More Hispano’s second CD in eleven long years, so that’s a big event for us!
Recorded in April 2009 for German label Carpe Diem, Yr a oydo “resulta de una exuberancia, una vitalidad y una sensualidad deslumbrantes” (Diario de Sevilla), and features an innovative program we have been working at for a few years now –having had the opportunity to play it live on numerous occasions prior to recording it, in which the main protagonist is, undoubtedly, improvisation.

MH - Yr a oydo

Yr a oydo (old Spanish for ‘Going by heart’) rethinks and contests the role of the modern performer of early music (who is often limited to performing just what is shown in the score), while trying to reinstate the creative side which not only belongs to his performance but, indeed, he should never omit. Yr a oydo is a unique project, in keeping with an extremely unusual proposition within the field of early music performance: the fully improvised performance of virtually all the pieces included in the CD.

Yr a oydo’s live performances have always been warmly received by the public –besides being cellebrated by the specialist press. Here are a few quotes:

One of the most original and powerful spectacles on offer from Spanish early music today.

—Scherzo

Vuelta de tuerca a la música antigua.

—La Nueva España, Asturias, December 21st, 2008

First press reactions start to arrive now:

Un trabajo lleno de fantasía, imaginación, hondura y virtuosismo, que en directo conforma un espectáculo fascinante, con mucho de sesión de jazz, y tal y como ha quedado recogido en este disco resulta de una exuberancia, una vitalidad y una sensualidad deslumbrantes.

—Diario de Sevilla on our latest CD Yr a oydo, April 10th, 2010

A new, two full-pages CD review was published last Saturday, April 17th at the culture magazine of the Spanish ABC newspaper.
