5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Mystical Blend, March 28, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Flamenco Mystico (Audio CD)

This music is unbelievably uplifting. For nearly decades Ive tried to find the "perfect" blend of world musical styles, largely in vain, despite the vast array of "fusion" and new age masters. After a really long time (way back in 1980 when I heard to the Moscow symphony render an Indian raga based symphony), this is the only CD that made my hairs stand on edge by its incredible blend of Flamenco with Middle Eastern and Indian musical textures woven in a unique, mature matrix.

I have been an avid fan of Flamenco music and dance for a decade. Gino D'Auri's piece titled "Flamenco Mystico" is the best I have yet to hear. Many Flamenco pieces are loud and disjointed,and often are enjoyed only in live performance with a dancer. However, this CD is the best of passionate Flamenco you will find on the market. Listen to it, enjoy it, anywhere, anytime. Two pieces really stand out... "Quelo de Triana (Soleares)" and Recuerdos de la Alhambra. Too bad he is a sporadic recorder.

Absolutely essential listening for anyone who loves the guitar as a voice in and of itself. It's worth buying the album just to hear the Rondena para Sabicas (a requiem for Sabicas, a grand technical master of flamenco). Gino D'Auri, a Rom from Italy, had an immense, haunted, more lyrical musicality than most flamenco artists, and understood the critical difference between technique and soul in playing the instrument. D'Auri passed away too, not long ago, so there won't be any more records like this.
