Customer Reviews:
Truly Lovely Music.......2007-03-14
I purchased this CD for my husband for Valentine's Day. He likes it very much, and we have since put it on during a small dinner party we had. People asked about the music and all agreed it was delightful. Whether or not it's Flamenco or Flamenco-style doesn't matter to us. It's beautiful music beautifully played!
Fantastic!.......2004-02-02
Once again, Ottmar Leibert shines on this superb collection!
immensely enjoyable and inspired.......2003-09-30
a remarkably satisfying, multilayered collection of songs that seem very modern but also rich in history. I believe that herein lies the magic of Ottmar Liebert - the keen and accomplished ability to synthesize from a variety of sources and then produce something that truly transcends all.
An even greater life to these songs becomes apparent in the concert setting. The subtlety of the music comes across as much more powerful and, like artists such as Steve Stevens, a welcome improvement and unique twist to traditional Flamenco.
A Winner.......2003-04-09
If you love great guitar music you can't go wrong with this CD. Mr. Liebert "christened" a new genre with his 1990 debut Nouveau Flamenco and has been at the forefront of that genre every since then.
Now, Mr. Liebert is back with a gem of a recording. Several pieces here, notably the beautiful SnakeCharmer, and his first hit, the catchy dance tune Barcelona Nights, have been extended and given new nuances while retaining the melodies we all know and love. That's true of every track here really. It has the spontaneity and feeling of a live recording, without the distraction of crowd cheering and noise.
Whether soft or loud, the guitar on this record is clear and crisp and really "strikes a chord" when you hear it. The percussion and horns and other things are nice, but they stay pretty much in the background and allow Mr. Ottmar Lierbert's splendid guitar work to shine through in the spotlight, which is a smart decision here. In addition to ten classic songs that have been re-worked, Mr. Liebert gives us Sao Paulo and Song For Pablo, two beautiful new tracks. If you are an Ottmar Liebert fan, you should love this. If you are not an Ottmar Liebert fan before you hear this CD, one listen to it may be enough to make you a fan. Peace, and God bless you.
Ottmar surpassed himself.......2003-03-20
Ottmar has surpassed himself in his new release 'Santa Fe Sessions'. The old favorite 'snakecharmer' is charmingly exotic. 'Sao Paulo' & 'Song for Pablo' are very refreshing.
Dan Aquilante of New York Post has described it best. According to him 'although it's a studio recording, it has the energy and feel of a live performance'.
He is right, many of these tunes hauntingly remind us of Ottmar's live performances.
Very desirable collection. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
