Really wonderful travelling companion.......2001-10-06

This CD really has made me happy, I listen to it every time me and my husband and our twins go some longer distans in our car. And my boys who are 9 years old love this music. And all of Helmut's CD's are really in much favor in my family. So I can truly recomend everybody to buy this and they will really like it. I garantee it. My sons even sing with the songs and that must tell you something. It's great fun to listen to. It's just a pity that noone in Iceland seem's to know of Helmut Lotti. Except me and my family.

Helmut Lotti Romantic.......2001-03-31

I feel he is either trying to or actually does sound too much like Elvis Pressly

Magical Africa.......2000-11-06

I find this album totally magical. I am from South Africa and therefore the music is close to my heart. It makes you conjure up Africa in your mind's eye, its power and beauty. It makes you adore the land even more. What is special, is how Helmut manages to bring this Africa to life in its people. He sings "My Sarie Marais" with a Dutch accent, like I imagine it must have sounded when the old people first sang it. He brings to life the new spirit of South Africa with songs like Shosalosa, our World Cup song of unity. This is his best yet.

Customer Reviews:

MUSIC TO OUR EARS!.......2006-02-27

The tribute to the 250th anniversary of Wolfgang's birth continues, and this two-disc set is perfect for those who want to like classical music and insist they can't. The 34 tracks sound familiar because they have been used in popular films, either as incidental music or as an important component of the score. And we're not just talking Amadeus, but films that you may be surprised used such memorable music ... Mission Impossible, There's Something About Mary, Runaway Bride, Trading Places, Miss Congeniality, The Living Daylights. The works are performed by the finest, including James Galway, Alban Berg Quartett, Riccardo Muti, Dame Felicity Lott, Sir Neville Marriner, Herbert Von Karajan and Martha Vineyard's Andre Previn. Pretty classy indeed.

Stellar.......2003-09-18

I have worn out the original CD. Every song on this CD is well worth the price. The music is different than any of his previous CD's. This tops my list of all time favorites.

This is one where you'll have to buy several copies........2002-09-20

Finally, not only something you'll want to own, but the perfect gift for Kwanza, Christmas, Eid or Channukah. Ever try to find the perfect gift for the friend who's finding his/her African roots? Well this is it.
The performances are stunning, the English, Afrikaans and Ki Swahili are perfect {I assume that the Zulu is also perfect}.
The performance of Nkosi Sikelele Africa, or Shosholoza are worth the price of the album.
Do your self a favour and buy this one. Give it to friends.
This is African music like you've never heard it . . . and it is beautiful . . . you don't need a PhD in Anthropology to love this one.

My favorite Lotti CD.......2001-09-19

This CD is my favorite of Helmut Lotti's. I have all of his CDs and a video of his. This is my favorite because I enjoy African music and his renditions are superb. His voice range is like noone else's. He has become my favorite singer even over and above Elvis who was my favorite for so many years. This CD even has a couple of songs that I remember from my younger days as a Girl Scout. I hope more of his CDs and videos come out soon.

Fresh, Original Perspectives.......2001-07-30

I admire Helmut Lotti not only for his very kind manner and thrilling, emotional voice, but also for his sheer musical fearlessness. Our multi-lingual hero has always demonstrated a truly remarkable affinity for apparently every Romance Language there is, but here he stretches even further, forging bravely and admirably into such phonetic minefields as Swahili and Zulu...and some of those songs go by at a very good clip, I might add!

The fact that Helmut chose to undertake such a project at all evidences an innovative spirit and a true interest in and respect for the African culture. He must have invested many hours in background research, linguistic coaching, and writing the additional English lyrics and music.

Let me proactively address those who might be indecisive about or even critical of this CD, wondering: "How dare a European record African songs? And he doesn't remain strictly faithful to the original versions." The answer: this was never meant to be an "indigenous" recording. Enjoy this album for what it is: a collection of original and accessible interpretations of great music, conceived with respect and research, and expanded into lush and beautiful arrangements, incorporating not only the solo voice but also vocal ensemble and orchestra.

For those (such as myself - I'm half Nigerian) not intimately familiar with South Africa's culture, this is an enjoyable introduction to some of the country's popular melodies. I recently re-watched a favorite old video, Paul Simon's GRACELAND, and was thrilled to now recognize some of the songs so marvelously (and more "traditionally") rendered by Miriam Makeba...and straightaway purchased her wonderful "Africa [Live]" collection. For those more knowledgeable from the outset, abandon yourself to the enjoyment of a magnificent male voice and a first-rate chorus and symphony, and rejoice in the fact that these songs continue to inspire people around the world to embrace them in their own way, and that they are being brought to a wider audience.

In addition, the sound production is of Piet Roelen's usual top-flight caliber. "Out of Africa" truly holds many pleasures. If the import price -- which really isn't that bad -- gives you pause, then save up for it, try Amazon Auctions, buy it from an international retailer (this can actually be cheaper), or put it on your Wish List and then e-mail everyone you've ever known. Bravo, Helmut.

An Excellent Display of Music!.......2001-05-30

This is simply a wonderfully pleasant CD. I enjoy this beautiful music everytime it vibrates on my eardrums! This is a masterpiece- I recommend it to all of his fans!
