Free Music Notes for Strings Latino/Latin Hits I Missed
Free Music Review: Two Styles in a Magnificent CD
Hit: 5 Stars
Edmundo Ros had lots of inspiration when he was the director of his own orchestra, but the latin sounds that were surrounded around the world in the late 50's and 60's, were some kind of presentation cards from another musical talents as Xavier Cugat and Damaso Perez Prado (the "Mambo" creator).
In many ways Edmundo had the great idea from mixing his musical roots (his mother was from Republica Dominicana and his father was from England), and for that time Edmundo Ros was synonimous of latin music, brasilian sounds of caribean breeze.
But making a stop for the genre, the replacement of strings for winds (violins, violas and cellos for trumpets, tubas and saxos) puts his magnificent musical direction over the common knowledge in the latin rytmics, giving in this ocation another sounds: the classical "spanish" music and the "hispano" melodies, all of them in the "Strings Latino" part.
So, you can hear "Cumana", "La Cumparsita", "Green Eyes" (the ultimate masterpiece) or "Delicado" (with all my respect but this version hits down the Percy Faith's one). I'm not so interested hearing the "singing" Edmundo's side, but some songs did that, sorry to say but instrumental is superior to vocal (that are just few in this CD).
The other part is "Latin Hits I Missed", definitively these are the particular latin songs that Sir Ros makes as his normal interpretation, just hear "Manha do carnaval" or "Spanish Flea" and you can understand why in this CD are mixed two styles.
But at least, Edmundo Ros and his orchestra are making the "state of art" in the american-latina music, this work is magnific and the album is a true-rare songs colection. Arriba Edmundo!!!!
