"We are now going to listen to a Mexican composer that I discovered not long ago in Paris, at a concert held at the Cité Universitaire. His name is Aquiles Lazaro, he is a young composer who must be between 30 and 40 years old. He has a very interesting work, in fact, quite extreme with the piano." 

"The Vienna-based Mexican composer and performer Aquiles Lázaro will play three of his own works for guitar at the concert. The pieces bear witness to Lázaro's special contemporary sound language, which he has already presented in various countries in the Americas and Europe." 

"I have been listening to Lázaro for some time and Aparición de San Sebastián seems to me to be very objective in its architectural concept, as well as very clear and direct in its message and discursive intentions. I have no doubt that it will be a pillar of his work when it is collected and studied in its entirety in a few decades." 

"We have just listened to the album MULTITUD, which brings together for the first time the piano music of Aquiles Lázaro, written over five years, by this outstanding Mexican composer." 

"He has maintained technical qualities that I recognized in him from the very first day: balance, a sense of form and proportion, and an exquisite rigor in capturing his discursive intentions, which he is always conscious of regardless of the path he takes or explores to develop them."

"Composer and researcher Aquiles Lázaro presented the Semiannual Report on Inequality in the Programms of Mexican Orchestras, prepared by the Mexican Center for Economic and Social Studies." 

"The concert begins with a work by Mexican composer Aquiles Lázaro, Chimalli. 'A piece inspired by a sculpture, it is a sound representation of what he considers that this sculpture transmits to him', explained Ludwig Carrasco, conductor of the orchestra."

"Cumbia Triste Latina was written in 2017 and conveys the current reality in Mexico City: misery, loneliness and marginalization in a very fresh language. The work mixes Lázaro's personal language with rhythmic patterns typical of cumbia."
