5.0 out of 5 stars Elegance meets passion, November 17, 2000
By 6XERVANTES (Dortmund, Ruhr Valley, Germany) - See all my reviews
Qué disco! Paquito has delivered again - this time a beautifully crafted, elegant Cuban orchestra sound. Excellent music to keep cheer you up on those chilly Central-European autumn nights, making you wish you were in the Caribbean. Es música tan elegante como caliente.

5.0 out of 5 stars Latin Grammy Winner 2000, September 20, 2000
By A Customer
It is obvious why this album won this year's Latin Grammy. Paquito is a master musician and I highly recommend this album to those interested in true jazz music.
