Christmas carols with a Spanish twist.......2006-10-02

Something different for the holidays! "Poets & Angels" features gently spicy renditions of familiar holiday tunes played by nouveau flamenco guitarist Ottmar Liebert, along with five original compositions. The traditional melodies are in there, but the Latin-style percussion and improvisational interludes and percussion set them apart from the usual holiday renderings. "Poets & Angels" is a fun, upbeat way to celebrate Christmas. Try also the album "Christmas" by guitarist and keyboardist Tino Izzo for another take on revamping traditional carols.

refrenshing instrumental music for the holidays.......2006-01-11

i was searching for a peaceful alternative to traditional christmas music--and wow did i find it?!! the soothing flamenco guitars are wonderful--i can't wait to hear his other music!

I love it and I think you will too!.......2005-12-01

Heard this album at a holiday party last year, bought it, and now pleased to discover he has released many albums since this was released nearly 15 years ago. The music is upbeat and festive, and if you want a great album for your holiday party, this is the one. Enjoyed by all ages in my family (preschool up to retirees and inbetween). Happy Holidays!!

Holiday Music At Its Best.......2002-12-05

This holiday CD is great and something you can listen to all year long!

"poetic & compelling arrangements...Latin blends flawless".......2001-11-03

Our young composer/musician from Higher Octave, shares the peace of the "Holiday Season", with counterpoint flair...can only be described through his God-given-talent of music...fifteen selections that will open you heart, capturing the moment from surroundings that remind you of "peace on earth, good will toward men"...if it doesn't, you missed the Christmas message!

As usual there are stand outs ~ "DECK THE HALLS", puts you immediately in a festive mood..."ANGELS WE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH/HIGH ON HOPE", sends a message from within..."LITTLE DRUMMER BOY/LUNA NEGRA BEAT", Latin guitar blends of percussion, speaks to us on a Flamenco plain, simply breath-taking...but the highlight is "1ST NOWELL", always one of my favorites, Ottmar gives this traditional carol another whole meaning, Liebert's arrangement takes you back to another time, where it all took place, in a small stable and a star shining brightly.
