The CD encompases most of "fundamento" cereminie, The singer Lasaro Ross is one of the top Santeria singers, has a very ethinic sound, while is easy to understand the proper pronuntiations of the words. This CD makes an exelent adition to any library, but especially for those who whant to learn the proper way to worship the orisha.

WHEN IN DOUBT ASK ORISHA, MAFEREFUN EL SANTO, THIS RECORD REPRESENTS HOW GREAT THE ORISHAS ARE AND HOW GREATFUL ME MUST BE TOWARDS THEIR PRESENCE. IS A VERY HUMBLE WAY TO SAY ASHE, THANK YOU IN A BEAUTIFUL WAY. MAFEREFUN BABA OBATALA.

I'm a babalorisha in Brasil, and I like very much this CD, specially the Oya music... Oya dé! Maa ariwo, ó mesan loro...

The Conjunto Folklorico Nacional de Cuba would produce others CDs with the very beatifull voice from Zenaida Armenteros.

Conjunto Folklorico Nacional de Cuba's MUSICA YORUBA represents Afro-Cuban folkloric music at its best.
 The quality is sharp and clear, but the basic drum/vocal beats are pure field recording in authentic Cuban style.

One of the best recordings of original and authentic Yoruba music. Apparently this is one of the earliest set of songs recorded for this spiritual tradition. The songs and drumming work themselves up to a form of trance music although you are always very grounded with the drumming part of the songs. You will definitely derive hours of pleasure with this c.d.
