  AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE: -Barela: January/February 2006 Issue(CD Review of "Images of Three Centuries")Pianist, Chanco makes her strongest and most convincing impression in Moussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, which seems to be a temperamental fit.Her sound is beautiful and the music flows well. …Many of the details of Pictures have been imaginatively worked out and beautifully delivered….Chanco also gives a lovely reading of the opening piece of Images, "Reflects dans l'eau".Her sound is right and she is fully engaged in this rapturous little piece.
  ...
  Chanco, who trained at the Juilliard School and lives in the East Bay, plays each work with assurance, but it is Ginastera's vibrant Sonata for Piano that lingers in the memory; the pianist captures the full measure of the Argentinean composer's rhythmic and melodic invention.Fish's lovely "Three Ages of Woman," Debussy's "Images" (Book One) and Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" are also included.
