Reviews: "A Bach-like elegance of form, arrangement and execution is Alejandro Santoyo's forte..." --John Payne (LA Times) "Alejandro Santoyo’s composition and arrangements are as expert as anything you can find in modern classical, while his light touch on the piano has the touch of genius about it... His compositions play the music to the film that takes place in the mind. It is visual, aural and spiritual, all at the same time… But mainly, it is music that comes from the heart and the soul, for the heart and the soul. It goes beyond words... It is Beautiful!" --Beatwire You can watch videos of his music and performances on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/user/alejandrosantoyo7?feature=watch Follow Alejandro Santoyo on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Alejandro-Santoyo/101963369878916 Follow Alejandro Santoyo on Twitter: @AlejandroSPiano www.alejandrosantoyo.com
