5.0 out of 5 stars A Masterpiece!!!, June 8, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Flamenco: Passion & Soul (Audio CD)

This CD is one of the best guitar oriented music in my collection!!! It is even better than D'Auri's previous release "Flamenco Mystico". The music is mainly the traditional flamenco guitar with modern touch, and some excellent cello works are added. The combination of flamenco and cello is extraordinary!!! The music is moody, soothing, and uplifting in some moments. Extremely beautiful!!!

This review is from: Flamenco: Passion & Soul (Audio CD)

Passion & Soul overwhelms with passages so beautiful, it's nearly impossible not to get swept up in the emotion, drama and joys forged by its master guitarist and cellist. Pyrotechnics be damned; this is music that doesn't waste one note to impress, but fills every measure to resonate long after the listener powers off the CD player. Film Music supervisors would do well to give this a listen for the sheer lyrical beauty of the mood inspiring melodies of "Ida Y Vuelta" and the truly breathtaking closing piece, "Paternera."

This review is from: Flamenco: Passion & Soul (Audio CD)

Gino D'Auri is Italian, but of Rom (Gypsy) descent. As the title promises, this CD is full of passion and soul as well as technical excellence. As D'Auri says in the liner notes, Flamenco is not just a lot of notes played really fast but the feeling the music imparts. This music conveys the Gypsy passion and soul, the joy and the pain, to perfection. Beautiful!
