Leisurely and Lovely Musical Tour of Cuba.......2001-04-03

This 5 disc "audio film" takes you on a panoramic and leisurely tour of Havana, Cuba through the music of the streets, the homes, the clubs, and the dance halls. Your tour guide is Italian poet and painter Mario Luis Malfatti, who also assembled the lavishly illustrated collage-style booklets within. The music, resembling "field recordings," was recorded on location and spontaneously. The quality of the sound is incredibly pristine, enhancing the effect of truly "being there."

Among the many highlights of your journey will be the complex and jazzy sounds of Duo Cachiabache, a children's choir singing traditional melodies, the classically elegant "Contradanzas" performed at the home of pianist Andres Allen, the dreamy mood of Duo Sincopa, and the thundering percussion celebration of Tambores De Bejucal at the carnival.

Throughout, we are treated to beautiful serenades and interludes played by pianist Frank Emilio Flynn performing Cuban and jazz standards. Also interspersed are the sounds of mechanical pianos, distant musicains down streets and alleys, and all the audiences, crowds, trains, cars, and birdsongs along the way.

If you're looking for something much more than just another collection of Cuban music, you've finally found it.
