Free Music Notes for Buena Vista Social Club Presents Omara Portuondo
Free Music Review: Sensual, Smoky and Moody.
Hit: 5 Stars
There are very few songs that can do what nearly every single song on this CD can do for me. You know how sometimes a song taps into some hidden or undeveloped part of who you are? Well, for me, with the exception of one or two songs here, this CD transports me to a different level. I really can't articulate it any better than that. After I listen to it, I just sashay around the house (when I used to walk). I think I'm going to go and put on something slinky now!
Buena Vista Social Club Presents Omara Portuondo Poster
While she came to global prominence as the female singer on the Buena Vista Social Club album and in the film, Omara Portuondo has a career that--like the other participants--stretches back many years. She puts her experience to good use on this record, sounding for all the world like a Cuban Billie Holiday, smoky and quietly tragic, with a history of lost love. The lush arrangements, which often sound transplanted straight from 1950s Havana, frame her voice exquisitely while guests such as Ibrahim Ferrer, Compay Segundo, and Rub?n Gonz?lez add their inimitable talents to the mix. Her reading of "The Man I Love" ("El Hombre Que Yo Ame") is also a microcosm of the disc--slightly jazzy, with a yearning vocal that's emotive without ever being overwrought. There's little doubt that Portuondo is a world-class singer, and this is the ideal showcase for her extraordinary talents. --Chris NicksonInternational Music CDs
