Free Music Notes for Cantos Revolucionarios De America Latina
Free Music Review: A fantastic album of revolutionary music
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the album that opened my ears to intellectual Spanish-language music, "musica trouba," "canciones nuevas," a genre in which I am still something of a novice and am continuing to explore. The title sums up the content of the album pretty well: these are "The Revolutionary Songs of Latin America." Some are pretty dated, like the one praising Ho Chi Minh, others remain relevent today such as "Hasta Siempre" and "Santiago de Chile." To be honest, the tone of this album is pretty confrontational, often bluntly so, and right-wing people will certainly be offended by the lyrics (if they understand them), but this album seeks to deliver a message beyond mere entertainment, at once revealing the beauty of the art that can be found in Latin America, the sad histories and conditions which people in Latin America have had to endure("Se O Grileiro Vem"), and most importantly the indefatiguable Latin spirit that, beaten down, still strives towards the new tomorrow. Soledad brilliantly interprets some masterful, emotive songwriting from many of the greatest songwriters from Latin America. Silvio Rodriguez performs "Santiago de Chile" with the somber and serious reflection, Soledad Bravo's expansive voice and aggressive arrangements transform it into a song of angry defiance, accompanied by blaring horns and military style drums. Though the much of the album retains this edge, the album appropriately closes with three intraspective songs, "Cancion del Elegido," "Pobre del Cantor," and "La Era Esta Pariendo Un Corazon," which move the listener away from the angst of the revolutionary struggles, and purposefully bring the album to a positive close. Along with "Santiago de Chile," "La Era Esta Pariendo Un Corazon" is my favorite on the album. I have to admit it was not easy for me to write this review even - the passions in the album take hold in me just to write about it without hearing it, and I worry I don't do it justice. I really, really, love these songs though and can't recommend it enough.
