4.0 out of 5 stars Authentic sounds from the Republic of Panama, May 1, 1999

This review is from: Traditional Music From Panama (Audio CD)

The sounds heard in the samples are representative of the folkloric panamenian music. It sounds in the best tradition of the Azuero peninsula. Is a jewell for anybody interested in authentic sounds and interpretation from the Republic of Panama. The voices sound as the tradition recommends. The instruments (percussion and melodic) are really played in the most pure and traditional styles from that country, where I was born.

This review is from: Traditional Music From Panama (Audio CD)

I am Panamanian- born and raised in the U.S. I've traveled to Panama and to the interior and heard traditional tipico music. When I purchased this I expected accordians and tipico style music. This is completely different- very ecelectic and unique at once. Some songs sound almost celtic, others African influenced and still others have a distinct Native sound. There are cries, drums, and strings trancending you to the Azuero Pennisula of Panama. Buy this CD if you want to experience the unique and beautiful folkloric music Panama has to offer!
