I mean, I guess I shouldn't criticize, since Brouwer obviously approves of his ideas, but the way he plays the rhythms just irks me. It doesn't seem very Elegiac to take it so fast and swing it so much. It's a great piece, though, and Cobo is a fantastic guitarist. (I'm probably so nitpicky about this because I played this piece, and you know how that goes...)

His right hand kind of reminds me of Lorimer. Good stuff! I had never heard this composition before and never heard Cobo either. His right hand kind of reminds me of Lorimer. Good stuff!
