Free Music Notes for Music from the Wine Lands

Free Music Review: Vintage Putumayo
Hit: 5 Stars

Living in the Wine Country,I looked forward to the release of this CD.After all,vineyards and wineries are part of my daily life.I wondered if this album would be a dud like "Music from the Coffee Lands" (a decaffeinated compilation if there ever was one)or a hit like "Music from the Tea Lands"(Putumayo's first Asian compilation,and one of its best)This CD proved to not be a disappointment.

Pauline Croze sings the breezy nouvelle chanson "Tita" (which also happens to be the heroine's name in the classic "Like Water for Chocolate");she gives smooth jazz to French music.Vinicio Capossela sings a melancholy song about the world's end.Amparanoia's "Puerto Claridad" is Spanish-meets-Cuban music.Jorge Fernando praises the Portuguese fado of his homeland.Alison Brown makes jazzy banjo music.Ana Laan's "Para el dolor" is lilting Spanish music.The late,husky voiced Vicky Moscholiou sings an imploring,bittersweet rembetiko in which she compares herself to coffee.Mariana Montalvo blends the chanson of her French home with the traditional Chilean instruments of her heritage.2raumwohnung plays smooth German jazz--not exactly a contradiction in terms.The late David Hewitt's "Streetbeat" is glorious African guitar music.The closing song,"Headless" from Australia's Stringmansassy,combines great acoustic guitar music with an odd song&odder vocalizations.

This album is a perfect companion to a glass of wine;it's also a great European compilation (though it has contributions from Australia,the US,South Africa,Chile&Argentina)and great for those who enjoy acoustic music.It's as relaxing as a good glass of wine.

Music from the Wine Lands Poster

It?s undeniable that wine and music complement one another. This CD illuminates this fact with songs from wine producing nations around the world. The tasting starts in Europe with the French singer-songwriter Pauline Croze, whose contemporary chanson gives a modern twist to the vintage genre. Vinicio Capossela and Gianmaria Testa prove that Italy?s appreciation for the fine arts extends to song weaving as well as winemaking. Spain?s Amparanoia sings about a love paradox that could apply to drinking wine as well. Portugal?s Jorge Fernando provides the perfect soundtrack for a glass of his country?s famous port wine. Though now living in exile in France, Chile?s Mariana Montalvo and her music have remained steadfastly rooted to the land where Bordeaux grapes thrived in the 19th Century. Argentina?s Melingo offers as much variety in his music as his country does in its vineyards. On the opposite side of the world, the sunny locales of South Africa and Australia offered the British an alternative wine source during World War I and II. South African guitarist David Hewitt became known for his blends of classical and jazz music with African-inspired rhythms and melodies. Fellow guitarist Aaron Hopper collaborates with vocalist Kacey Patrick to form the group Stringmansassy for Australia?s contribution to the wine list. California?s Alison Brown and Greece?s Vicky Moscholiou round out this robust collection of songs.

A portion of Putumayo?s proceeds from the sale of Music from the Wine Lands will be donated to Slow Food in support of their Terra Madre World Meeting. Terra Madre provides a forum for those who seek to grow, raise, catch, create, distribute and promote food in ways that respect the environment, defend human dignity and protect the health of consumers.
