Gustavo Leone was born in Buenos Aires in 1956 and is now a professor of music at Loyola University in Chicago. His music combines a strong sense of atmosphere with a feeling for drama. Its basic lyricism is coloured with echoes of folk-music and the Baroque and animated by outbreaks of dancing energy. This is the second CD from Toccata Classics to feature the playing of the Cuarteto Q-Arte from Bogotá: they perform the String Quartet by Luis Carlos Figueroa on TOCC0165.
