Heard only excerpts on NPR's Weekend "All Things Considered" and immediately fell in love with the music and lyrics. It is sensual and exciting and I am looking very much forward to hear the entire CD. I am a fan of latin music. The theme of this CD reminded me about the movie "Like Water for Chocolate".

Maria has a voice that won't quit. It's the kind of voice that would makes the sirens jealous! The songs are sung in an older Castillian dialect. The content is unusual and gives a refreshing outlook on typical love songs. You won't believe your ears.

While Maria Salgado has been around quite a while in Spanish music, her voice has been relatively unknown in North America except for the occasional afficionado (or Spaniard). She has varied from poppy, ballad-oriented work to much more folksy approaches such as the tracks in this latest work. With all of critical acclaim that norteamericanos have heaped on "Siete Modos" and a new interest in all things 'world', I am sure her voice will become more common--and this is an excellent introduction to it. Most tracks on the CD are extremely strong, and only occasionally a little over-produced (for a contemporary folk album), but overall, a wonderful addition to any musical library.

If you find Maria to be worth your time, then check out work by her occasional collaborator and in this case, producer, Luis Delgado, who has also worked in Spanish-Andalusian Medieval music with some equally enchanting results.
